Conservation
Visitor pressure and tropical weather threaten fragile carvings—stick to marked paths, avoid touching bas-reliefs, and support local guides who practice responsible tourism.

Buy your Angkor Pass early
Angkor Archaeological Park requires a ticket purchased at the official ticket center—arrive early to avoid lines and allow time for photo ID verification.
Dress respectfully
Shoulders and knees should be covered inside temples; carry a lightweight wrap to comply with local customs and enter sacred sites.
Wear grippy shoes
Temple steps are uneven and often worn smooth; closed-toe shoes with traction reduce slips, especially after rain.
Start at sunrise if possible
Angkor Wat’s moat mirrors the early light and crowds are thinner at first light—bring a small headlamp for the walk from the van to the causeway.
Sturdy walking shoes
Good grip and support for uneven sandstone steps and root-covered paths.
Refillable water bottle (1–2L)
Stay hydrated in tropical heat; many guides can refill bottles between stops.
summer
Light, breathable long-sleeve shirt or sarong
Protects from sun and fulfills temple dress codes; also useful against mosquitoes at dusk.
Compact rain jacket or poncho
