Cambodia 柬埔寨 🇰🇭
From the awe-inspiring temples of Angkor to the pristine beaches of the south, Cambodia is a land of contrasts where history whispers through jungle-covered ruins and vibrant culture thrives in bustling markets. The iconic Angkor Wat, the world’s largest religious monument, dazzles at sunrise with its lotus-shaped towers, while the enigmatic faces of Bayon Temple and the tree-engulfed ruins of Ta Prohm (featured in Tomb Raider) transport visitors to a lost world. Beyond Siem Reap, the capital Phnom Penh offers poignant history at the Killing Fields and grandeur at the Royal Palace, while the riverside comes alive with hip cafes and Mekong sunset cruises. In the south, Sihanoukville’s palm-fringed islands like Koh Rong boast powdery white sands and bioluminescent plankton, while the Cardamom Mountains shelter rare wildlife and thrilling eco-lodges. Cambodian cuisine—from fragrant amok curry to crispy banh chheo pancakes—tells stories of Khmer heritage, best enjoyed at a floating village or a night market buzzing with silk scarves and hand-carved soapstone. Whether meditating with monks at a hilltop pagoda or cycling through emerald rice paddies, Cambodia’s magic lies in its resilience and warmth—a kingdom that has risen gracefully from its past.
从震撼的吴哥古迹到南部的隐世海滩,柬埔寨是一片历史与自然共舞的土地——吴哥窟的莲花塔在日出时镀上金光,巴戎寺的佛面微笑与塔布笼寺(《古墓丽影》取景地)的树根盘踞的废墟,让人恍如穿越时空。暹粒之外,首都金边的杀人场铭记沉重历史,而皇宫的金殿闪耀着高棉王朝的余晖,河畔咖啡馆与湄公河游船则展现现代活力。南部的西哈努克市外,高龙岛等离岛的白沙与荧光藻如梦似幻,而豆蔻山脉的丛林营地藏着稀有物种。柬埔寨美食——从清香阿莫克鱼到酥脆香蕉花煎饼——诉说着吴哥后裔的智慧,最适合在水上人家或贩卖丝绸与石刻的夜市中品味。无论是与僧侣共赏山巅寺庙的云海,还是骑行穿越翡翠稻田,柬埔寨的魅力在于它的坚韧与温情——一个从历史中优雅重生的王国。
✨ 5-Day Siem Reap Adventure | 暹粒五日探索之旅
From ancient temples and stunning sunrises to floating villages and vibrant street life—Siem Reap surprised and inspired me every step of the way.
从古老神庙到日出美景,从水上村庄到夜晚热闹的街头,暹粒带给我无数惊喜与感动。
🌳 Day 1 – Angkor Small Circuit | 第一天:吴哥小圈巡游
🏛️ Angkor Wat, Bayon, Baphuon, Ta Prohm
My journey began with a visit to Angkor Wat, and it completely blew me away—the size, the details, the spiritual atmosphere. Then I explored Bayon, famous for its mysterious smiling stone faces, and Baphuon, with its steep pyramid-like steps. I ended my day at Ta Prohm, where giant tree roots embraced ancient walls like something out of a movie.
我的旅程从令人震撼的吴哥窟开始,无论是规模、雕刻细节还是神圣氛围都令人敬畏。接着是巴戎寺里神秘的微笑石像与巴本宫殿的陡峭石阶。最后来到塔普伦寺,那被巨树缠绕的遗迹仿佛穿越电影画面。
🌄 Day 2 – Sunrise & Grand Circuit | 第二天:日出与大圈遗址
🧭 Angkor Wat Sunrise, Preah Khan, Neak Pean, Ta Som, East Mebon, Pre Rup
I woke up at 4:30am to catch the sunrise at Angkor Wat. It was crowded, yes, but also absolutely magical. After that, I spent the whole day exploring the Grand Circuit—from the forest-surrounded Preah Khan, to the peaceful water temple Neak Pean, and the picturesque Ta Som, East Mebon, and Pre Rup.
我凌晨4点半起床,只为在吴哥窟看一次日出。虽然人很多,但那一刻的光影真的令人难忘。接下来我探索了吴哥大圈遗址,有被丛林包围的圣剑寺、静谧的水中寺庙涅盘寺,还有适合拍照的塔颂寺、东梅奔寺与夕阳最佳地变身塔。
🌃 In the evening, I strolled around Pub Street, grabbed some street food, and watched the amazing Phare Circus—it combined dance, theater, and acrobatics in the most inspiring way.
晚上我去逛了酒吧街,尝了些街头小吃,之后看了一场精彩的Phare马戏团表演,那是将高棉故事与舞蹈、杂技结合的独特演出,非常感人。


🏞️ Day 3 – Outer Temples & River Carvings | 第三天:山林与远郊古迹
🌄 Kbal Spean, Banteay Srei
Today was about getting off the beaten path. I hiked through a forest trail to Kbal Spean, where I saw sacred riverbed carvings hidden beneath the water. Later, I visited Banteay Srei, a tiny pink sandstone temple filled with the most intricate carvings I’ve ever seen.
今天我选择走访较少游客前往的景点,沿着森林小径徒步来到荔枝山(Kbal Spean),看到了河床下古老的神像雕刻。接着前往被称为“吴哥艺术之钻”的女王宫(Banteay Srei),这座小巧的粉红砂岩寺庙雕刻之精美让我惊叹不已。
🌊 Day 4 – Floating Village & Local Life | 第四天:水上村庄与本地生活
🚤 Kampong Phluk, Lotus Farm, Golden Pumpkin Restaurant, Angkor Coex
In the morning, I took a boat ride to Kampong Phluk, a floating village on the Tonlé Sap. Life on the water here is unlike anything I’ve seen—schools on stilts, boats as taxis, kids fishing with nets. Then I visited a beautiful lotus farm, learning how every part of the lotus is used in Khmer culture.
早上我乘船去了洞里萨湖上的Kampong Phluk水上村庄,亲眼见到高脚屋、船只当作出租车、孩子们用渔网捕鱼的生活场景。接着参观了一个优雅的莲花农场,了解到莲花在高棉文化中从根、茎、叶到花朵都能被广泛运用。
For dinner, I enjoyed Khmer specialties at Golden Pumpkin Restaurant. In the evening, I stopped by Angkor Coex, a cool mix of aquarium and cultural gallery.
晚餐我在金南瓜餐厅品尝了几道地道的高棉菜,晚上则去了结合水族馆与文化展示的Angkor Coex,非常适合放松结束一天行程。


🐓 Day 5 – Farm Sunrise & Farewell | 第五天:田野日出与告别
👋 Siem Reap Farm, Fly Back
Before heading to the airport, I visited a small farm near Siem Reap to watch the sunrise over rice fields and listen to the sounds of waking nature. It was peaceful and grounding—a perfect way to say goodbye.
离开前,我去暹粒附近的一个乡村农场看日出,金色的稻田与鸟鸣、水牛声交织出的画面让我非常宁静。用这样的方式告别这座城市再合适不过了。
Siem Reap Province Cambodia 柬埔寨暹粒省
Home to the legendary Angkor Archaeological Park, Siem Reap is where the soul of Cambodia’s golden age comes alive. The majestic Angkor Wat, the world’s largest religious monument, awes visitors with its lotus towers glowing at sunrise, while the enigmatic stone faces of Bayon Temple and the jungle-entwined ruins of Ta Prohm (famed from Tomb Raider) evoke a mystical lost world. Beyond the temples, Siem Reap town pulses with energy—bustling Pub Street offers craft cocktails and fragrant amok curry, while the Angkor Night Market brims with silk scarves and hand-carved souvenirs. Cruise the floating villages of Tonlé Sap Lake, where stilt houses rise with the monsoon waters, or cycle through emerald rice paddies to lesser-known gems like Banteay Srei’s pink sandstone carvings. Whether attending a traditional Apsara dance or learning pottery from Khmer artisans, Siem Reap weaves ancient grandeur with vibrant modern life—a place where every sunset over the temples feels like a blessing from the gods.
作为吴哥考古公园的所在地,暹粒承载着高棉帝国最辉煌的记忆。世界最大宗教建筑吴哥窟的莲花塔在晨光中苏醒,巴戎寺的佛面微笑与塔布笼寺(《古墓丽影》取景地)的巨树盘石,共同构筑神秘秘境。寺庙之外,暹粒小镇生机勃勃——酒吧街的调酒与阿莫克鱼椰香四溢,吴哥夜市摆满丝绸与石刻工艺品。乘船探访洞里萨湖的水上人家,看吊脚楼随雨季涨落;或骑行穿越翡翠稻田,寻访女王宫粉砂岩雕等小众遗迹。无论是观赏仙女舞表演,还是向高棉匠人学习陶艺,暹粒将远古的壮美与现代的活力完美交织——每场吴哥日落,都像众神馈赠的祝福。
