Siem Reap recorded an 18% year-on-year increase in international arrivals, the strongest first half since 2019, according to figures released by the tourism ministry.
Angkor Archaeological Park ticket sales rose in step, while newly added direct flights from regional hubs put more seats into the rebuilt Siem Reap–Angkor International Airport.
Hoteliers report firmer average room rates, though operators note that visitor spending outside the temple circuit still lags pre-pandemic levels.
