I miss that time at Angkor Sankranta Festival in Siem Reap. It was an amazing experience of enjoying the festival of the year. There were many different programs related to Khmer cultures and local products. Let me show you some pictures I’ve captured as I’ll describe a long. I have videos for you too. Note: these are only a few pictures because different programs were at the same time. So I missed most of them. I hope to join this festival again next year.
