Re: Special Discount on Angkor Wat Pass Prices Continues
Cambodia to introduce pass for foreigners to visit world-famous Angkor Wat
By New Straits Times - August 12, 2022 @ 4:09am
SIEM REAP: Cambodia plans to introduce a convenient, single lifetime pass for foreign travellers to visit the Angkor Archaeological Park, where the world-famous Angkor Wat temple complex is located.
The move by the Ministry of Tourism is designed to stimulate tourism to the culturally rich province of Siem Reap and potentially other areas as 2023 has been designated as "Visit Cambodia Year 2023".
According to The Phnom Penh Post, the lifetime pass could potentially grant access to the whole archaeological park.
Currently, separate tickets are required to enter temples in certain areas, with only one-day, three-day and seven-day tickets available for the main section, which includes the main attraction Angkor Wat.

Something that has been asked for for many years but always fell on deaf ears.

This is cool. Things are heading in the right direction.
"According to the tourism ministry, Siem Reap received about 60,000 international visitors in the first half of 2022, up by more than 1,000 per cent from the corresponding period in 2021.
In the same period, domestic trips rose to over one million, representing a growth of almost 800 per cent from a year ago, while 387 flights to Siem Reap were recorded."
Is the lifetime pass thing done at any other attractions that anyone knows of?
Cheers

I assume the lifetime pass is just for tourists, as there is supposed to be the free if 2 consecutive years in passport pass once they figure out procedures?

Good idea and would be interesting, BUT BUT BUT - I don't want to be Debbie Downer, BUT this is Cambodia, so let's see what actually happens IRL.
