Cambodia
Temples rise from jungles in mystical haze, November to March beckons with cool, dry magic
01 · Overview
The best time to visit Cambodia is between November and March, when ancient temples rise amid lush jungles in dry, golden light. With warm, dry weather (25°C to 30°C), this season is ideal for exploring Angkor Wat, wandering Phnom Penh’s markets, or relaxing on Sihanoukville’s beaches. The lack of rain enhances temple visits and outdoor exploration. For a cheaper or less crowded trip, try late October or early April, just outside peak season.
