I would like to advise you before explore the temples , should come to enter the AngkorNationalMuseum first, the world heritage museum in Siem Reap of Cambodia within wonderful multi exhibit artifacts

Kai

It should be the first stop in Siem Reap to understand the history of Khmer, the kings and Angkor Wat. It's a comprehensive tour covering many aspects of the Khmer history .

Alisa P

Very interesting museum , we visited it after temples but didn't regret. Lots of mini movies about Khmer culture and temples . Audio guide is helpful. I recommend to book online to pay less.

Dal Be

I would highly recommend going to the museum before visiting the templates in Siem reap, especially if you will visit them without a guide. It will help you know what you are looking at ????

Seb ????????????????

A must see before to visit the temples . You will learn the complex story of Khmer dynasties and key architectural differences.

Very nice museum with a great summary of the various periods of history under different rulers. A great place to visit before your Angkor park adventures. No photos inside!

Caroline Santosham

Overpriced but gives you a lot of information and is is definitely worth it especially if you are planning to visit the temples . Go here before going to the temples for a richer temple experience.

Rachel Lam

The normal admission fee for foreigners is USD 10. An audio guide comes at an extra USD 2. Worth a visit as a prelude to a visit to Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom .

Fienuts

Entrance fee is USD12 and the audio kit is USD3. There are English video slides available around the museum though for the main halls. Less crowd during off peak season.

Daniel Kee

Try it the other way round: visit main sites like Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom , Bayon, Ta Phrom, Pre Rup, Bantaey Srei, Kbal Spean & Preah Khan with a guide THEN round it off with a trip to the museum . :)

Mark J.

Well-curated museum with a good introduction and overview to the Angkor Wat complex. Good for an afternoon when you need some AC after templing in the heat.

J-OSL

It is definitely a good place, visit before going to Angkor Wat& Angkor Thom for the better understand the history in each ancient age.

Tali Gabitskaya

Good museum . Worth to visit before going to Angkor. Especially to those who are not familiar with Buddhist and Hinduist mythology and history.

Joey Lim

An informative place to see before the temples . One prepare to spend more than 3hrs there. Rent an audio headset, it will enhance the visit greatly.

Raymond Tan

Great museum , professionally run and managed well . Multiple exhibits that give visitors background and fundamental understanding of the Khmer Empire.

Kseniia Kastusik

Must see before visiting Angkor itself. Take an audio guide .

Jj Acuna

Great exhibition on the history of Angkor Wat . But its very dense.
