You arrive before the world wakes: the air is cool and humid, a line of palms and dark reflection pools framing the silhouette of Angkor Wat. The tour moves quietly—small groups, a licensed local guide, and the slow reveal of bas‑reliefs as first light slides over carved lintels. Standing at the western edge, you hear the stones as much as see them; the causeway dares you forward while the reflection pool pushes an echo of the temple back toward the sky.
