Cambodia - Siem Reap
We arrived in Siem Reap, where we stayed for three days while we travelled through the amazing Khmer ruins of Angkor. The town was quite nice, with a great atmosphere.
This is a typical street in Siem Reap. There is currently a lot of construction here, as they are trying to improve the city with all the tourist money flowing in. In some areas, it seemed as though every other building was a huge hotel.
Downtown Siem Reap at the old central market.
The fruit and vegetable section of the market.
This section of the market is where you can get all the Prada, Gucci, Rolex you could ever want. As you wander around the stalls you here the nice chorus of "For you... special price. It's same same, but different."
This is outside the Ta Prom temple. Each temple area has a number of stalls like these selling various paintings, wraps and other souveniers. This was also were Jenn and I picked up a bunch of $1 colour copies of various Lonely Planet guides.
