Cambodia is a country that has been famous for over 1,000 years and is also a country of great wonders.

Siem Reap is my hometown, and I am very proud to have been born in the most sacred land, which is almost a thousand years old. My ancestors built many temples as a legacy for future generations. Especially in Angkor Wat, because of all these temples, I became a tour guide.

I love Angkor Wat.

Today is Water and Moon Festival and Boat Racing

For the people of Cambodia, the Water Festival and Bon Om Touk (The Pirogue Racing Festival) in Phnom Penh is the most magnificent traditional festival. For three days Phnom Penh citizens, foreign tourists and peasants from various provinces gather in the capital to celebrate festival night day.

The water festival had background for so long time. The water festival ceremony is the army training to do attest of the army for preparing to do a battle. In the history, Khmer King always does the battle with enemies by sailing. So he prepares this water festival ceremony every year to choose Champion of sailing battle, as in Bayon Temple, Batteay Chhmar in the Preah Bat Jayvarman VII. We had seen a lot of statues about sailing battle under leading of Jayvarman VII. The custom of this is to have from then up to the present.

On the other hand the water is celebrated 26th, 27th, and 28th in November to honor the victory of Cambodian Naval forces in the reign of King JayvarmanVII, during Angkor period of the 12th century.

Mr. JB’s Story

My name is Chamroeun SOK, a Cambodian tour guide. Most of my friends call me JB.
I was born in 1981 and raised in a tiny fishing village not so far from Angkor Wat (Cheasmorn Village, Meanchey Commune, Prasat Bakong District, Siem Reap Province) dreaming of learning English and one day becoming a tour guide at the temples.
I walked 14km to my school every day, often carrying my belongings through the rainy season floods. I learned Japanese and English languages and had $3.50 in my savings when I turned up at the tour guide school.

Now, I am a freelance tour guide around Siem Reap and on operation tours around Cambodia. I have decided to share my profession by setting up the JB School in 2013 that has been operational until now providing free education in my village with my younger brother, Riel Ruon, and other volunteers to teach English and computer skills. About 400 children come here every day after their public school classes to improve their skills.

I believe that No one can do everything but everyone can do something.

Thank you very much.

Everybody has "heard" of the world-famous temples of Angkor Wat, but nothing compares to seeing them for yourself! The massive archaeological site of 400 square kilometers contains over a thousand separate sites dating back to the ancient Khmer empires and would truly take a lifetime to fully explore. So what's the best way to see the fantastic sights around Angkor Archaeological Park? With a JB Tours guide, of course! Journey through the ancient ruins of past civilizations and explore many other highlights in Siem Reap, Cambodia.

I can walk anywhere in Cambodia without fear, without the need for any security (bodyguards), and with all the people in the world, why be afraid to visit this beautiful country?

The new airport in Siem Reap is spacious, clean, in a good location, suitable for landing, and does not affect the people or the national or world heritage.

The presence of this large and comfortable airport will help Cambodia develop faster, stronger, and more competitively. With better neighbors.

Long-term or short-term tourists can travel directly to Cambodia without having to fly to neighboring countries. No more wasting time and money.

Beng Mealea, nickname “Jungle Temple” is a very impressive temple built in the reign of King Suryavarman II, 12th century CE, and modified by Jayavarman VII. It is located in Beng Mealea village, Beng Mealea commune, Svay Leu District, Siem Reap province. It is about 77 Km Northwest of Siem Reap town and faces the eastern part of Kulen mountain on one side.

The temple was built on a flat plan in a compound of 14 hectares, and consists of one central sanctuary, surrounded by three galleries and connected by cruciform galleries. It is surrounded by a moat of 1200m in length and 900m in width, a symbol of a cosmos ocean surrounding Mount Meru, the residence of all the Gods. There are four smaller strctures, previously termed "libraries"; two are in the inner enclosure and the other two are in the outer enclosure.

Beng Mealea was decorated with 180 lintels, depicting the scenes of Churning the Sea of Milk, Mahabharata, Ramayana and some individual Brahmanic deities such as Siva, Brahma and Ganesha.

Generally, it has two levels, the upper level assumed to have been used for King and his family members and the lower level for the members of the court.

Beng Mealea was built as a Hindu temple.

On 16 October 2023, Siem Reap, Cambodia, will officially open its new international airport.

In the lead up to the opening, the Siem Reap Angkor International Airport (SAI) is testing non-commercial and non-profitable flights.

This is a big change for the humble town and gateway to the world-renowned Angkor temples. SAI is not only bigger than Siem Reap’s current international airport, but also further out of town – 40 kilometres eastwards.

The new airport will have 38 gates and will be able to welcome large passenger planes like the Airbus A-340-300 and A350-900, as well as the Boeing B777-200/300ER and B747-300/400. This will increase Siem Reap’s capacity to operate direct flights from various destinations.

While an airport highway has been built to accommodate the distance and traffic between the new airport and Siem Reap town, the journey is still expected to take about an hour by taxi. Offering a public service shuttle for this route has been suggested and is under discussion, but no official plans have been set yet.

All commercial passenger and cargo flights currently operated at the existing Siem Reap International Airport (REP) “will be transferred entirely and one time only” to the new facility (SAI) from 00:00 AM (Cambodian Time) on 16th October, the State Secretariat of Civil Aviation (SSCA) said in a statement.

It's “Pchum Ben” (Ancestors Day) in Cambodia today, one of the most important events on the traditional Khmer calendar. This 15 day religious festival sees most Cambodians going to their local Pagoda and paying respect to deceased ancestors. Offerings of food (normally sticky rice) are given to the spirits who are said to return to the earth for this brief period, alternative food tributes are also offered to the resident Monks. Participating in this annual ritual is said to bring good luck and happiness for the following year. The festival culminates in a three day national holiday (13th-15th of October this year) which is when many will visit the busy Pagodas. Considered equal in importance to the Khmer New Year this unique festival definitely warrants a look.

Due to the rainy season, rain is not a problem for guests.

Because guests do not have much time, I have to fulfill their purpose with Angkor Wat sunrise, Ta Prohm Jungle temple (Tomb Raider), Angkor Thom ancient capital city, and Bayon temple with a charming smiling face.

Angkor Wat is an invaluable human treasure.

There are many famous people around the world, such as Politicians, businessmen, actors, singers, world-class players, who visited Angkor Wat.

You should spend some time in your life preaching to find out more about the history, religion, mysteries and wonders of the works of our Cambodian ancestors, who were able to build this temple by hand, made of sandstone, that is almost 1,000 years old.

When we were young, we learned social skills and gained experience. When we were in middle age, we benefited from society. When we are older, we do not forget to give back to society. Our lives are short, we live for a purpose before we die.
No one can do everything, but everyone can do something.
