Angkor Thom

とても素敵な場所、建物はもちろん、場の雰囲気がとても良い

Quite spectacular. Awesome palace complex. Each building tells of architectural beauty aesthetic finish. The entire place remains in memory as if etched in stone. The only sad fact was that we could not get inside the palace. Another disappointment was the lack of permission to take photos inside the Silver Pagoda.

Be careful. Everywhere says it closes at 5pm but they stop visitors FROM ENTERING at 4pm to allow everyone currently on the grounds to be OUT BY 5 pm. This caught me off guard - but still returned the next day as they open very early at 8pm :). Beautiful grounds, temples, pagodas, and shrines. Don’t skip over the artwork all along the inner wall of the Silver Pagoda area - very interesting and not highlighted.

平日のお昼過ぎにきました。しかし、中には入れませんでした。どのようにして入るのだろうか。調べる必要があると思います。\n\n広場は、鳩がたーくさん、また芝生が整備されていてとてもクリーンな空間でした。夜はライトアップされていた。\n\nI came here on a weekday in the early afternoon, but I couldn't get inside. I wonder how to get in? I think I'll need to look into it.\n\nThe square was full of pigeons, the lawn was well-maintained, and it was a very clean space. It was lit up at night.

We visited this palace on our first day in the city. Amazing site, so different to anything else you might have experienced before. Stunning colours, history and art. Life here is so diverse, wealth and abject poverty, vibrant colours and mud/litter. The palace certainly portrays a very affluent acceptance in a country with so many living with so little.
