Anyone that has ventured beyond Angkor Wat will know there is far more to Cambodia than just its temples, spectacular as they may be. Cycling through remote countryside strung with bamboo huts, paddy fields and sugar palms allows you to experience a country and a culture that remain refreshingly unblemished by tourism. Fingers crossed it stays that way.

Siem Reap city, also the capital of the province, is located in northwestern Cambodia and a must-visit destination for all visitors to the country, serving as the gateway to the Angkor Wat temple complex renowned all over the world. Siem Reap also contains a vibrant atmosphere with plentiful accommodations ranging from simpler guesthouses to five-star resorts, beautifully-aged colonial buildings, silk farms, markets, and much more.
