Angkor National Museum
This museum is a useful stop-over en route to the temples, so
visitors can gain some perspective on the centuries of history,
rich symbolism, and other stories that often remain hidden when
viewing the Angkor temples without a guide. The museum uses
multimedia displays and various artefacts to evoke the golden age
of Khmer culture. The building itself is ultra-modern, lavishly
air-conditioned, and enormous, with over 20,000 square metres of
floor space.

Svaydangum, Siem Reap

Language
Khmer is the official language. French is also spoken,
but English is fast becoming popular with the younger
generation.
Money
Riel (KHR) is the official currency and is divided into 100 sen.
Foreign currency is difficult to exchange with the exception of US
Dollars. Most transactions require cash. US dollars and Thai Baht
are accepted, although smaller transactions are usually done in
riel. A torn US dollar note renders it useless. Credit cards are
only accepted in a limited number of tourist-orientated hotels and
restaurants in Phnom Penh and larger towns. There are a few ATMs in
Phnom Penh, but they shouldn't be relied upon as a source of money;
travellers cheques in US dollars or sterling can be cashed at a
limited number of banks and larger hotels, though travellers
cheques are not recommended due to limited acceptance.
