What to expect in Siem Reap in March as temperatures rise, with advice for Angkor, pools and day trips.

The heat becomes more noticeable

March can feel much warmer, especially on exposed temple stone.

Start earlier

Morning becomes the most valuable part of the day.

Choose your hotel carefully

A good pool and reliable air conditioning matter more now.

Hydration

Carry water and drink before you feel thirsty.

My rhythm

I would build every major outdoor day around a real midday break.
