Besides that, Siem Reap has more to offer than the religious complex itself, swing by Tonle Sap Fishing Villages where you can have home-cooked fish at local’s homes. Take your time to tour the village seeing the vast green floating rice fields and be awed by the beauty of the quaint, peaceful neighbourhood.
