Stepping into the Kingdom of Cambodia, also known as Kâmpŭchéa, unfolds an enthralling tale of time. Occupied since prehistoric times, this South East Asian gem reached its pinnacle under the reign of Jayavarman II in 802 AD, marking the beginning of the glorious Khmer Empire. With the spread of Hinduism and Buddhism came illustrious structures like Angkor Wat, a testament to the architectural prowess of the kingdom.

However, prosperity was followed by strife. From being a protectorate of France in the 1860s, independence in 1953, to the brutal reign of the Khmer Rouge, Cambodia’s history has had more than its fair share of upheavals. Today, despite being a constitutionally multiparty state, the Cambodian People's Party's dominance translates into a de facto one-party state.

Its rich biodiversity, expanding economy and a fascinating history - so vividly echoing both Indian and Chinese influences alongside European echoes from the colonial times - has turned this once strife-torn nation into a vibrant, must-visit destination for globetrotters.

When to visit Cambodia

Given Cambodia's monsoon climate, timing your visit is crucial. The preferable months for tourism are the cooler months from November to February, where the weather hums a pleasant symphony perfect for exploring the country's wonders. However, the monsoon season from May to October, while sometimes a bit wet, offers lush, verdant landscapes that are nothing short of enchanting.

To explore Cambodia's historical monuments and temples, including the impressive Angkor Wat, fewer crowds make November a standout choice. With Lycafly, you can choose the best time to travel according to your preferences and the Cambodian climate. Discover the wonders of Cambodia at your own pace and ensure a fulfilling, memorable journey.
