APSARA National Authority Notice for Visitors to Angkor Wat

[SophatCHY]

To enhance safety, order, and the overall experience of both national and international visitors, the APSARA National Authority has announced the implementation of a one-way street system around Angkor Wat Temple, effective September 25, 2023.

Traffic flow details:

• Vehicles entering from the East Gate → must travel counter-clockwise around the temple.
• Vehicles entering from the West Gate → must travel clockwise around the temple.

This rule applies to all vehicles: cars, motorcycles, and bicycles.

The aim is to:

• Ensure smooth traffic flow
• Prevent congestion
• Provide a safer and more pleasant experience for everyone

APSARA Authority requests all visitors’ cooperation in respecting these new traffic arrangements.

Angkor Wat – A UNESCO World Heritage Site, preserved for all of us.

I hope Google Maps can also be updated to reflect this important traffic change, so tourists and locals receive the correct directions when visiting Angkor Wat.
