Top Things to Do in Siem Reap in March

Recommendation Rate of Travel:

With balmy weather and fine climate, early March is favorable for visiting Siem Reap. One of the top things to do in Siem Reap in March is to enjoy the impressive sunrise over the spectacular Angkor Wat. Appreciating the hundreds of giant smiling faces in Bayon Temple should not be missed, either. In fact, it is worth spending at least 2 days to explore the sprawling temple complex. Besides temple visiting, you can also experience a jungle-canopy zip-line adventure inside the Angkor Park. With the highest point of over 50m (164 ft.), the zip-line is extremely exciting and interesting. At night, enjoying an "apsara" traditional dance performance in Siem Reap is an unmissable cultural experience.  

Tip

Do protect yourself from scorching sunlight by applying sunscreen and wearing a sunhat.
