Cambodia Weather in April

Tourism Rate: 

There is one of the most important festivals in April - Songkran Festival. It is held from April 13 to 15 on the Gregorian calendar every year, and it is like the New Year in other countries. During this period, it is also the best time to experience Khmer culture. Tourists can participate in the carnival of splashing water, feel the atmosphere of national celebration in Cambodia, and watch all kinds of traditional religious activities in Cambodia. At the same time, there is another good news: Angkor Scenic Area is open to the public free of charge during the Cambodian New Year. The Angkor Wat scenic spot is open for four days from April 13 to April 16. No tickets are required to enter the scenic spot. Visitors can visit the square in front of Angkor Wat and the Elephant Terrace. However, tickets are still required if they want to visit various scenic spots such as Angkor Wat and Bayon Temple. In addition to holding large-scale performing arts activities and exhibitions in the scenic spots, Khmer traditional games such as tug of war, throwing sticks, playing casseroles, jumping sacks and water fights will also be organized. Siem Reap will be very lively during Songkran Festival.
