PANDORA’S SIEM REAP TRAVEL TIPS (Tip 17)

Tip No. 17: Even if I may sound hypocritical about this, I must advise you to HELP PRESERVE AND PROTECT THE TEMPLES BY FOLLOWING ALL THE RULES AND REGULATIONS OF THE TEMPLE VISITS.

 

Grafitti

When we were in one of the smaller temples, our guide showed us text carved onto one of the walls of a door.  If I remember correctly, our guide said that the text was a love letter of some sort.  As we looked at the text closely, we discovered that someone had recently carved a rabbit at the bottom of the text.  The graffiti not only ruined the wall, it is one of the reasons why, little by little, certain areas of the temples are now off limits to tourists. So, please follow the rules of the temple visits.
