I advice that tourist should try here first before going to the ruins. the place gives a quick historical, religious and other important background to the whole angkor ruins. the collections though is not as diverse as i would have expected. it can get boring halfway. Cost: $12

The quality of this museum is quite good. It has well-arranged presentation along with good use of multimedia.

I had the good sense of spending my first official day in Siem Reap by allotting a few good hours at the museum.

I did not get passed the $13 plus price for admission. I mean seriously, this is Cambodia, not New York City. Why the high price for a museum??

an airconditioned beautiful museum that explains the history of Angkor with fantastic examples of the carvings USD15 to visit but worth it

This is a museum of Khmer sculpture in Siem Reap and we found it really useful to have visited before doing the temples of Angkor. We also went to the National Museum in Phnom Penh and got more out of the Siem Reap museum. It is well presented, air conditioned, and very informative. We were really glad that we had... More

Don't miss visiting this! Especially after seeing all the sights - Angkor Wat, Bayon, Ta Prohm etc. The Hall of 1000 Buddhas is a marvel and the whole museum designed to walk you through the Khymer civilization and show you the besy statues, wall reliefs etc. that managed to survive looting and Pol Pot. Great gift shop also for authentic... More
