The Equinox Angkor is a special solar phenomenon that occurs twice a year at Angkor Wat in Cambodia. The first event, called the Vernal Equinox, typically occurs between March 21st and 23rd from 5:00 AM to 6:30 AM. The second event, known as the Autumnal Equinox, usually takes place in September.

The Equinox Angkor is one of the most popular events, attracting tourists from around the globe as well as local Cambodians. During these events, thousands of visitors gather in front of the western entrance of the Angkor Wat temple, waiting to witness and capture photos of the breathtaking sunrise.

One of the most unforgettable experiences in Siem Reap is witnessing the sunrise over the iconic Angkor Wat Temple—an awe-inspiring moment that draws visitors from around the world. As early as 4:30 AM, travelers begin gathering in front of the temple, often near the northern reflection pool, which is widely considered the best spot to capture the perfect silhouette of Angkor Wat’s five lotus-shaped towers mirrored in the still water. This location offers a magical view as the sky transitions from deep blue to soft pink and golden orange, with the temple gradually illuminated by the rising sun behind it. For photographers, arriving even earlier—around 4:00 AM—ensures the best front-row view, as the area fills quickly, especially during peak season. While Angkor Wat is the most popular sunrise destination, those looking for a quieter experience might opt for Srah Srang, also known as the Royal Bathing Pool. With its wide-open view and fewer crowds, it offers a peaceful and scenic alternative. No matter which location you choose, watching the sunrise in Siem Reap is not just a photo opportunity—it’s a moment of wonder and reflection, where history, nature, and spirituality converge in a truly breathtaking way. Be sure to bring a flashlight, wear comfortable shoes, and prepare for an early start to make the most of this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
