FRIDAY 3:30PM
The flight to Siem Reap, Cambodia from Kuala Lumpur is a breeze. Just a little over two hours and I am with the Khmer people. Siem Reap International Airport is modest in size yet unmistakably modern—I arrive without a hitch. Everyone likely knows Siem Reap as the seat of the legendary Angkor Wat (early 12th century), the largest religious momument in the world that continues to capture the imagination of many. This trip, however, is to discover Siem Reap’s other sides. At the arrival hall, Chivoan (G1) from Bensley’s Pool Villa is here for the pick-up right on time. Only a short drive away from the airport, and in the laid-back neighbourhood of colonial shophouses bearing French influences, Bensley’s Pool Villas, Shinta Mani Angkor is ideal for a carefree getaway.
