Day 96: Angkor Wat and Angkor What?

Today we got up at 5am to see the sunrise over the famous Angkor Wat.

Unfortunately, this was more difficult than it should have been, as last night, we were at "Angkor What?", the first nightclub in Siem Reap, drinking buckets until 2am.

The night was insanely fun though, with plenty of dancing and fun.

The sunrise was spectacular as well. Set over the moat, with the temple in the background, it was incredible. Unfortunately, the timelapse I took got slightly disrupted, so it looks hilarious.

We got quite lucky too, that there were only about 50 people there, as we heard the previous morning had been packed with almost a thousand people! Weekends, man.

The temple itself is obviously famous for a reason, a spectacular series of buildings that I can easily imagine in its heyday.

We then went back to the hostel for a quick swim and a nap, and went back later to Angkor Thom, and the famous Bayon, with all of the faces.

It was practically empty of people when we were there exploring, and it was honestly magical. I think this was another of my favourites, just because of the temple, and how serene it was.

We also had the opportunity to see the sunset over Angkor Wat as well, which was beautiful, and really made it full circle back to the morning.

Tomorrow, a last explore xx
