It is now possible to sail above Angkor Wat in a hot air balloon, a must for all visitors wanting the ultimate aerial shot of the world's largest religious building. The balloon is one of the largest in Asia, capable of taking up to 30 people in its basket and offers stunning panoramic views over Angkor Wat and the mountain temple of Phnom Bakheng. The balloon ascends a fixed wire and is located midway between Siem Reap +Airport and the temple of Angkor Wat.
