YES --- VISIT THE ARCHEOLOGICAL SITES..BUT DON'T MISS A TUK TUK RIDE OF SIEM REAP. SIEM REAP is recognized as the launching pad for a visit the world famous archeological sites that UNESCO describes as one of the most important archaeological sites in South-East Asia. Stretching over some 400 km2, including forested area, Angkor Archaeological Park contains the magnificent remains of the different capitals of the Khmer Empire, from the 9th to the 15th century. They include the famous Temple of Angkor Wat and, at Angkor Thom, the Bayon Temple with its countless sculptural decorations. UNESCO has set up a wide-ranging programme to safeguard this symbolic site and its surroundings. Practically no one visits the archeological sites without spending some time in the city of Siem Reap. By night hang out on Pub Street. But also spend a day discovering the sights of Siem Reap and the best way to do that is take a TUK TUK RIDE. It is a great way to see the city because all you have to do is sit there and click on your camera's shutter button to capture some amazing memories of Cambodia's fifth largest city. So what is a TUK TUK...In Cambodia they may be somewhat different. Tuk-tuks, two-wheeled carriages pulled by motorbikes that can fit anywhere from two people to entire families, are a ubiquitous sight throughout Cambodia. While the official name is remorque, or “trailer” in French, they are colloquially known as tuk-tuks, paying homage to their Thai counterparts. But they really are trailers pulled by motorcycles, meaning almost anybody can get in on the game. In part of the world it is known as an auto rickshaw is a motorized version of the pulled rickshaw or cycle rickshaw. Most have three wheels and do not tilt. They are known by many terms in various countries including auto, baby taxi, pigeon, bajaj, chand gari, lapa, tuk-tuk, 3wheel or tukxi. The auto rickshaw is a common form of urban transport, both as a vehicle for hire and for private use, in many countries around the world, especially those with tropical or subtropical climates, including many developing countries. As of 2019, Bajaj Auto of Pune, India is the world's largest auto rickshaw manufacturer, selling 780,000 during the fiscal year..
