via Khmer Times, 08 June 2022: Tourists coming back to Siem Reap, but the numbers are still far from per-pandemic figures.
Cambodia’s famed Angkor Archaeological Park had attracted 45,779 foreign tourists in the first five months of 2022, up 859 percent compared to the same period last year, said a press statement on Tuesday.
The ancient park made $1.85 million in revenue from ticket sales during the January-May period this year, also up 841 percent year-on-year, said the state owned Angkor Enterprise’s statement.
In this May alone, the Angkor greeted 12,574 foreigners, earning $503,813, it said.
