Parking banned on Angkor Wat roads

via Phnom Penh Post, 08 September 2021: The Apsara Authority to enforce a ban on roadside parking within the Angkor Archaeological Park.

The Apsara National Authority (ANA), a body tasked with managing the Angkor Archaeological Park, has requested that visitors refrain from parking their vehicles on the streets in the area because it obstructs traffic and lessens the beauty of the temples.

The request came after ANA observed that people were parking their vehicles on the roads despite the presence of clearly visible “No Parking” signs throughout the area and reminders from park staff members.

ANA spokesman Long Kosal told The Post on September 7 that in order to enhance the beauty of the temples in the Angkor area the department of public order and cooperation at the ANA have introduced a total ban on parking any vehicles such as cars, trucks, motorcycles and bicycles on the streets within Angkor Park.

Furthermore, vendors are instructed to refrain from selling goods in the area and walking on the grass lawns or eating food on the streets of Angkor Park have also now been banned.
