No reasons were given among the news stories I read. Xinhua News offers the standard press release news item:

Day tickets to rise from $20 to $37. Still cheap by international standards.

I have no idea, but what does it cost to visit the pyramids, or Stonehenge, etc.?

A few years ago I went to see he temples and lasted about 1 1/2 hours there. Thousands of people, stinking hot and to top it off, the main temple was closed as they were renovating the entrance.
so as for seeing temples, I was a lot happier visiting the ones around Battambang and only a couple of $$ to enter.
F### Angor Watt!!!!

hmmmmm....

Stonehenge
Adult - £15.50 ($20)
Child (5-15) - £9.30 ($12)
Concession - £13.90 ($18)
Family (2 adults, up to 3 children) - £40.30 ($50)

The Pyramids of Giza & the Sphinx
Enter the Site - 40 LE ($4.50)
Go inside pyramid - 60 LE ($6.75)

The Great Wall of China
Each entry point across the wall = 40-45 RMB ($6-6.75)

$37 dollars seems a rip off in comparrison (But Angkor Wat is huge, although i think the $20 current price tag is about right)
