When is cambodias winter




















There are obvious disadvantages to visiting during the rainy season, but personally its my favorite time of year in Cambodia. During the rainy season the temples of Angkor are at their most beautiful and most photogenic.

The reflecting pools and moats are full, the vegetation is deep green and the wet stone of the temples is at its most colorful. Also of photographic note, the rain-washed air of the wet season is particularly clear as compared to the hazy, smoky skies of the dry season, making those long shots of the temples and rice paddies that much clearer.

If you always wanted that shot of from the top of Phnom Bakheng of the distant Angkor Wat in the jungle illuminated the light of sunset, this is the best time of year to bring your mm lens and give it a try.

Outside the cities, the rice paddies are full of water and green with new rice, the jungle is lush and the countryside is picturesque and alive with growing season activity. The river and lake levels are high making boat travel easy. It's the best time of year to take the boat from Siem Reap to Battambang , reputedly one of the most picturesque boat trips in Cambodia.

It must be said that there are fewer tourists in the country. The temples are less crowded, prices are lower and the bars and restaurants are all happy to see you. And, practically speaking, it does not rain all of the time or even every day during the rainy season. When it does rain it usually starts around PM or PM and lasts a couple of hours, making it easy to plan around in most cases.
