You may or may not be right about SR being overall better. It's quite possible that upon visiting both (if I ever happen to visit SR, which is not in my plans so far) I will say the same. As of now, I assume my opinion won't change significantly.
Once again, I have not visited either of two cities yet. I cannot have a solid position regarding how they compare to each other. I do have reasons to choose going to PP myself instead of SR, which I listed above. What do you wanna argue about? SR is not flooded by tourists? PP is not the capital?
You can keep saying that each single thing is always different from any other, and that's hard to argue with. Is Angkor different from … temple? Yes, sure. Is it different enough to justify going to a city only for the sake of visiting that temple? Maybe for you, not for me.
Temples aren't your thing? Fine. Saying they are all the same? Asinine, presumptuous and ludicrous. Oh, and I suppose all waterfalls are the same too. And for someone who claims to be a photographer. Pshaw.
I do love your direct belief in what's better based upon, well, nothing, since you haven't even traveled here.
Look, REP (as a town) sucks. Tourists suck. The temples however cannot be found outside of the region and even then only in several places in Isaan and southern Laos outside of Cambodia. But have at it in PNH and watch out for your camera while walking around or you're more than likely to lose everything.
