In the second part of my series about incredible cultural experiences I had in Cambodia, I'm detailing 3 main experiences in Siem Reap that I will remember forever: Songkran (Khmer New Years) water festival, getting a traditional Sak Yant tattoo from a monk, and experiencing the power of Angkor Wat, the largest religious complex in the world. I accidentally spent two weeks in Siem Reap (which most backpackers would definitely not do lol).
