Back to Old Times- Siem Reap

Siem Reap-means "Defeat of Siam".  Now serves as a small gateway town to the world heritage site of Angkor Wat.  It is a vibrant town with modern hotels and restaurants, still managing to preserve much of its culture and traditions. Also ranked fourth in the World's Best Cities of Travel and Leisure survey in 2014. (source:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siem_Reap)
