Is a 12-dollar ticket worth it?

To be honest, I was a bit hesitant before going. Museums in China are basically free, but in Siem Reap, everything requires a ticket, and they are all quite expensive. But we did have plenty of time, so we took a tuk-tuk and went there~ As soon as we entered, I was pleasantly surprised. I had imagined the environment would be average, but it turned out to be great, with a courtyard pool and white spiral staircase~ You can rent an interpreter at the entrance, but if you have a photo translation app, you can save this 5 dollars😊 There are a total of four exhibition halls, ABCD. The first one is to watch the museum introduction, in the form of a documentary, with a Chinese version, and then start the tour in order. There are also several documentaries to watch during the process, which are very helpful for you to understand Khmer mythology. The next day when you go to Angkor Wat, you will be glad that you have been here to learn Angkor Wat or Khmer mythology is deeply influenced by Buddhism and Hinduism, especially Hinduism. Hinduism itself is a polytheistic religion, but there are three main gods, Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. Therefore, many buildings in Angkor Wat are related to these three. This is my own summary, you should go and see for yourself
