Watt Munisotaram — Attraction in Empire

This is a gorgeous place! I had the day off work today and wanted to stop by on Friday for the first day of the 2023 Cambodian New Year celebration to enjoy the weather, have some food, and take photos with my new camera lens. My friend and I had a great time. The parking lot was very nice and spacious, weather was fantastic, great views, and many friendly people.

Great to experience and see other cultures. I also hope the next time I bring my whole family to visit. The temple will be finished with their renovations. I'm excited to see the results. I'm sure it'll be...

This place is so peaceful and blissful. I came here on Thanksgiving day, and it was not busy. It was super cold so we couldn't get to tour the place longer. I could easily stay here for hours, wondering around the temples and the grounds. But I was very pleased with what we were able to come across. The temple itself has an upstairs and downstairs, which is way bigger. There is a sign that says, "Yes, we are open!" I'm assuming it's opened any time of the day, even on holidays. Definitely plan to make another trip back here when it...
