PHNOM PENH: Siem Reap cultural province of Cambodia has been classified among the five Budget-Friendly Summer Vacation Destinations in Asia, according to the Bangladesh-based Daily Star.
Located in Southeast Asia, Siem Reap is a gem with breath-taking temples, vibrant cafés, and serene canals, the Daily Star commented.
One of the most amazing sights in the world, Angkor Wat, can be reached from Siem Reap, said the source, adding that tourists may visit the Tonle Sap Floating Village and Siem Reap Night Market for an experience that combines modernity with the old. After a day of seeing the city, tourists should finish the visit with a foot massage and some Khmer food.
The Daily Star underlined that accommodation, approximately Tk 16,000 (Bangladeshi currency roughly US$145), may be pricey here. However, tourists may only spend about Tk 8,000 (US$73) per week on transportation and meals. A budget of Tk 10,000 (US$90) would be good for seeing sights and having fun. A three-day vacation to Cambodia may be a reasonable investment, considering the estimated cost of Tk 45,000 (US$408) to 50,000 (US$454).
The other four destinations are Cebu of the Philippines, Goa of India, Nha Trang of Vietnam, and Dushanbe of Tajikistan.
