287,454 international tourists visit world famous Angkor Archaeological Park in Cambodia in 2022

Cambodia’s famed Angkor Archaeological Park attracted 287,454 foreign tourists in 2022, earning $11.5 million from ticket sales, the state-owned Angkor Enterprise.
The number of international tourists to the Angkor has gradually recovered after the country has successfully controlled the Covid-19 pandemic and fully reopened its borders.
“Currently, the Angkor attracts between 1,800 and 2,000 foreign visitors per day, a significant rise from only 70 a day during the pandemic in 2020 and 2021,” .
However, the current number was still low if compared to the pre-pandemic era, which recorded up to 9,000 international visitors to the Angkor a day. During the pre-pandemic era, the Angkor received up to 2.2 million international visitors in 2019, generating $99 million in revenue from ticket sales.
“We believe that more foreign tourists will come to Cambodia, especially to the Angkor, in coming years as many airlines have resumed their flights to the kingdom,”.
Located in northwest Siem Reap province, the 401-square-km Angkor Archaeological Park, inscribed on the World Heritage List of the UNESCO in 1992, is the most popular tourist destination in the Southeast Asian nation.
