Angkor Wat Tickets: Prices, Passes & Where to Buy

You will need an Angkor Pass to enter Angkor Wat and most temples within the Angkor Archaeological Park.

There are 1-day, 3-day and 7-day passes, and choosing the right one depends on how much of Angkor you want to explore.

This guide explains the current Angkor Wat ticket prices, where to buy your pass, how online tickets work, and what you need to know before visiting.

Recommendation: For most visitors, we recommend buying your Angkor Pass online through the official ticket website before your visit.

Angkor Wat Ticket Prices

There are three standard Angkor Passes that cover entry to Angkor Wat, the main temple attraction in Angkor:

Pass	Price	Validity
1-Day Pass	US$37	1 day
3-Day Pass	US$62	Any 3 days within 10 days
7-Day Pass	US$72	Any 7 days within 30 days

Children under 12 years old and Cambodian nationals can enter free of charge, but you should carry their passport as proof of age or nationality.

Your Angkor Pass covers Angkor Wat and most of the major temples in the Angkor Archaeological Park.

Some more distant attractions require separate admission and are not included in the Angkor Pass.

Which Angkor Pass Should I Buy?

1-Day Angkor Pass

The 1-day pass is suitable if you only have one day available for Angkor.

A full day gives you enough time to see Angkor Wat and several other major temples, but Angkor is enormous. Trying to see everything in a single day usually means spending much of your visit travelling quickly between temples.

If you only have one day, a well-planned itinerary makes a significant difference.

3-Day Angkor Pass

For many visitors, the 3-day pass offers the best balance.

It gives you time to explore the major temples without trying to fit everything into one exhausting day. You can visit on any three days within the pass’s validity period, so those days do not need to be consecutive.

This works particularly well if you want to combine the Small Circuit, Grand Circuit and some of Angkor’s more distant temples.

7-Day Angkor Pass

The 7-day pass is best for visitors who want to explore Angkor in much greater depth, particularly photographers, history enthusiasts and travellers staying in Siem Reap for an extended period.

The seven visits can be spread across the pass’s validity period, allowing you to explore at a much slower pace.

Which Ticket Do I Need for Angkor Wat?

For Angkor Wat, choose one of the Angkor Temples Park passes shown above: 1 day ($37), 3 days ($62) or 7 days ($72). These passes cover Angkor Wat and more than 50 temples and archaeological sites, including Angkor Thom, Ta Prohm, the Grand Circuit and Banteay Srei.

Other sites shown on the official ticket website, including Koh Ker, Beng Mealea and Kbal Spean, have separate entrance tickets and are not included in the standard Angkor Pass.

Where to Buy Angkor Wat Tickets

There are several ways to purchase an Angkor Pass, but we generally recommend buying online before your visit.

Buy Your Angkor Pass Online

Angkor Passes can be purchased through the official Angkor Enterprise ticket website.

Buying online means you can arrange your ticket before your temple visit and avoid making the ticket office part of your morning itinerary.

Be careful when searching online for Angkor tickets. Third-party websites may also sell tickets or tours. If you only want the official Angkor Pass, make sure you are using the official Angkor Enterprise service.

Buying Tickets in Siem Reap in Person

Main Angkor Enterprise Ticket Office

The main Angkor Enterprise ticket office is the official ticket office for purchasing Angkor Archaeological Park passes in person. It is located on Apsara Road (Street 60), northeast of central Siem Reap, away from the main route into Angkor Wat.

You can purchase 1-day, 3-day and 7-day Angkor passes here. Unlike the self-service ticket machines at Angkor Parvis and The Heritage Walk, the main ticket office is also the place to go if you want to pay for your ticket in cash.

If you are visiting Angkor Wat for sunrise, buying your ticket here on the same morning can add a significant amount of time to your journey. As a general guide, we recommend allowing around 30–40 minutes extra for the detour to the ticket office and purchasing your pass, although this will depend on where you are staying, your transport and how busy the office is.

ATMs, Coffee and Facilities

There are plenty of ATMs at the main Angkor ticket office, with most operated by ABA Bank, so withdrawing cash is generally straightforward. You will also find small shops and places selling coffee and refreshments, although we wouldn’t rely on these being open, as their opening schedules can be erratic. If you specifically need cash, however, ATMs are readily available.

For the easiest start, particularly at sunrise, we recommend buying your Angkor pass online in advance. The main ticket office remains a good option if you prefer to buy your ticket in person, want to pay cash, or need assistance choosing the correct pass.

Angkor Ticket Machines at The Heritage Walk

If you want to buy an Angkor Wat ticket in person without travelling to the main Angkor Enterprise ticket office, there are official Angkor Enterprise self-service ticket machines at The Heritage Walk in central Siem Reap.

The Heritage Walk is a shopping centre on National Road 6, close to the Royal Gardens, making it a convenient option for visitors staying in central Siem Reap who want to arrange their temple pass before the day of their visit.

The self-service machines accept card payments only. Cash payments are not available at these machines, so if you want to buy an Angkor pass with cash, you will need to visit the main Angkor Enterprise ticket office.

Buying your ticket at The Heritage Walk can be particularly useful if you are planning an Angkor Wat sunrise visit. Purchasing your pass beforehand means you can travel directly towards Angkor Wat the following morning instead of making the detour to the main ticket office.

Our recommendation: if you are already near The Heritage Walk, the machines are a convenient way to buy your pass in person. Otherwise, buying your Angkor ticket online in advance is generally the easiest option.

Cash purchases need to be made at the main ticket office.

Can I Buy an Angkor Wat Ticket at the Temple?

Near Angkor Wat, there are Parvis self-service ticket machines where you can purchase a pass before entering the temples. As of September 2026, these machines accept card payments only.

If you’re visiting for sunrise in particular, buying your ticket online in advance is the easiest option. You can then travel directly to Angkor Wat without adding another job to an already early morning.

Cash purchases need to be made at the main ticket office.

What Does the Angkor Pass Include?

Your Angkor Pass provides admission to Angkor Wat and the major temples and archaeological sites within the Angkor complex, including temples on the Small and Grand Circuits as well as several sites further from central Angkor.

Popular temples covered by the Angkor Pass include:

Angkor Wat
Bayon and Angkor Thom
Ta Prohm

Preah Khan
Neak Pean
Ta Som
East Mebon
Pre Rup
Banteay Srei
Banteay Kdei
Ta Nei

Do I Need to Print My Angkor Pass?

If you purchase your Angkor Pass online, follow the instructions provided with your ticket and make sure your ticket is readily accessible when entering the temples.

Tickets are checked at entry points throughout the archaeological park, not only when you first arrive.

Keep your pass available throughout your day at Angkor.

Can I Leave Angkor and Come Back on the Same Day?

Yes, if you buy your Angkor Pass online. Online tickets allow multiple entries during the same day, so you can leave the Angkor Archaeological Park and return later.

This can be particularly useful if you visit Angkor Wat for sunrise, return to your hotel for breakfast or a rest, and then head back to the temples later in the day.

Tickets purchased from the Parvis machines are normally single-entry tickets, meaning that once you leave, you cannot return using the same day’s ticket.

There is currently a temporary green-season promotion allowing two entries in one day for 1-day tickets purchased at Parvis. This is a special promotion rather than the normal ticket condition.

If you want the flexibility to leave and return during the day, we recommend buying your ticket online.

Do Children Need an Angkor Wat Ticket?

Children under 12 years old do not require an Angkor Pass.

Bring the child’s passport with you, particularly if they are approaching 12 years old, as staff may ask for proof of age.

Children aged 12 and over require the normal Angkor Pass.

Do Cambodian Nationals Need an Angkor Pass?

Cambodian citizens can visit Angkor Wat and the temples of the Angkor Archaeological Park free of charge and do not need to purchase an Angkor Pass.

Cambodian visitors should carry a valid Cambodian ID card or passport, as proof of nationality may be requested at temple checkpoints.

Angkor Special Pass for Long-Term Foreign Residents

Long-term foreign residents in Cambodia may be eligible for a free Angkor Special Pass, allowing access to the Angkor temples without purchasing the standard tourist passes.

In our experience, if you can show two consecutive years of Cambodian visas in your passport, you should be eligible to apply. The application is completed online: fill in the application form, upload evidence of your Cambodian visas and provide a photo.

Once approved, the Angkor Special Pass is normally sent electronically within a few days. Keep the pass available on your phone when visiting the temples, as you may be asked to show it at ticket checkpoints.

Eligibility and requirements can change, so we recommend checking the current requirements when applying through the official Angkor Enterprise Special Pass website.

Should I Buy a 1-Day or 3-Day Angkor Pass?

If you’re deciding between them, I’d choose the 3-day pass whenever your itinerary and time in Siem Reap allow it.

Angkor is much larger than many first-time visitors expect. Angkor Wat itself can take several hours to explore properly, before you’ve even reached Angkor Thom, Ta Prohm or the temples of the Grand Circuit.

One day works when time is limited.

Three days lets you experience Angkor instead of racing through it.

Bayon Temple Guide

Bayon is one of Angkor’s most remarkable temples, famous for its enormous stone faces and maze of carved galleries. We recommend visiting early, when the temple is quieter and the soft morning light brings the faces to life.

Ta Prohm Temple Guide 2026

Ta Prohm is famous for its enormous trees growing through the ruins, but there is much more to explore beyond the best-known viewpoints. We recommend visiting early, when its corridors and courtyards are quieter and the temple is at its most atmospheric.
