Dawn unfurls over a broad moat and the silhouette of Angkor Wat sharpens against a pale sky. A local guide waits in the hotel lobby, the tuk‑tuk idling like a patient animal ready to carry you into stone and shadow. Whether you begin before first light to catch the temple spires framed by mirror‑flat water or linger until evening for golden relief on carved bas‑reliefs, the complex moves with an almost theatrical rhythm.
