War Museum Wat Thmey and Artisans Angkor Half Day Tour

Siem Reap has withstood the test of time during past wars; remnants of these times are shown when we take you around Siem Reap to a local pagoda and the interesting War Museum. Beyond the temples, this half day tour reveals a different, more recent side of Siem Reap's history. Start at Wat Thmey, a small pagoda where young monks study English and where a memorial stupa holds the remains of victims of the Khmer Rouge regime. Continue to the War Museum Cambodia, home to tanks, artillery and aircraft from three decades of conflict, offering insight into a period that shaped modern Cambodia. Finish at Les Artisans d'Angkor, a social enterprise reviving traditional Khmer stone carving and wood sculpture, currently expanding into a new Living Art Village campus set to open in November 2026. A chance to browse the finished artwork closes out the visit before the return to your hotel. A half day that moves from remembrance to resilience, and ends with Cambodia's living craft traditions.
