Launched in March 2020, the Angkor Eye is the latest attraction in the Cambodian city of Siem Reap.

Located near the Cambodian Cultural Village and within a five-minute walk from Anantara Angkor Resort, thisprominent structure is 85 metres in height and is the first of its kind in the country.

The Angkor Eye features 48 air-conditioned cabins which can accommodate up to four people each. The ride takes around 18 minutes and passengers can look forward to impressive 360° panoramas of the surrounding areas which include the Angkor Wat Complex and the idyllic Siem Reap countryside. Those taking a ride at night can also discover a whole new perspective of the city as it comes to life.
