🇰🇭 What to Do in Siem Reap Beyond Angkor Wat?

While most visitors come to Siem Reap for Angkor Wat (myself included!), I made sure to explore the city itself—only to find shockingly few guides on urban exploration. After returning, I stayed up late compiling this ultimate Siem Reap City Walk guide. Save it now! ⭐ 🚶 Siem Reap City Walk Route Angkor National Museum → Preah Ang Chek/Chorm Shrine → Wat Bo → Wat Preah Prom Rath → Wat Damnak → Night Market → Pub Street 🔶 Must-Visit Spots ✔️ Angkor National Museum ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A must before Angkor Wat! Detailed exhibits on Khmer Empire history, including a 1,000-Buddha corridor and Angkor scale models. ✔️ Preah Ang Chek/Chorm Shrine ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Siem Reap’s most sacred temple. Get blessed by monks (morning alms at 5:30–6:30 AM). Offer flowers ($1). ✔️ Wat Bo ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Oldest temple with 19th-century murals of daily life. Few tourists, authentic vibes. ✔️ Wat Preah Prom Rath ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 18th-century temple with a giant reclining Buddha and boat-shaped stupa—super photogenic! ✔️ Wat Damnak ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Next to Night Market. At sunset, monks’ bells summon dogs for feeding—quirky and heartwarming. ✔️ Night Market ⭐️⭐️⭐️ For souvenirs (elephant pants, etc.). Haggle hard! ✔️ Pub Street ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wind down with drinks (pricey but lively). Massage shops everywhere! 📝 Pro Tips 1️⃣ All temples are free! 2️⃣ Wander freely—street photography here is gold. #SiemReap #AngkorWat #CambodiaTravel #CityWalk
