doc, thanks for the above story link. Hopefully, Tomb Raider will lead to an increase in tourism, and thus result in an improvement in the economy in the area

If anyone goes, I highly recommend spending at least three days at Angkor Wat (just as I would recommend at least three days at Petra). The various temple complexes are huge and spread out and it takes time to really appreciate the architecture, the symmetry, the stone carvings... Also, it is very hot at all times of the year, so seeing Angkor at sunrise and sunset in the same day is difficult on the body. Then, of course, you will want to see the Bayon faces at dawn and dusk as well, take a trip to Bantreay Srei, see the huge trees overgrowing the temples at Ta Phrom, see the elephants at the city gates, etc... (apologies for what are likely misspellings of the major site names...just rambling off the top of my head and I didn't consult my guide books for proper names)
