Siem Reap's Top Selfie Spots
Let’s face it, we all want to get the perfect vacation shot. Whether to frame on the mantlepiece at home to remind you of happy holidays or to show off to your friends on Instagram, photographic souvenirs are an important part of every trip. We’ve rounded up our top 5 locations in Siem Reap to capture the perfect shot.
Miss Wong Cocktail Bar
Have you even been to Siem Reap if you don’t have a Miss Wong fan shot? Siem Reap’s original cocktail bar is named after Vladimir Tretchikoff’s painting of a Franco-Chinese lady and the iconic image on the fan menus is from Siem Reap based artist Christian Develter.

Wild Bar
“Inside all of us is a wild thing”. We love this bold mural by Tamara Venn and it makes the perfect photo backdrop. Kids, solo travellers or couples - anyone will look good with this pretty picture behind them.

Kandalis & Coconut Alley
Siem Reap’s iconic artwork by international street artist Findac is a must see. Be sure to also explore the rest of Coconut Alley with some amazing work by Pure Evil, Carne Griffiths, Din Borin and Nak Noy.

Le Malraux
The most photogenic restaurant in Siem Reap. This French-Cambodian owned venue spans four intersecting laneways, hidden away just steps away from the Old Market. The only problem is trying to decide where to take a photo as everywhere you look is so charming.

Theam’s Gallery
Every time we visit this place we get house envy. A meandering art walk takes you into intricate pavilions, over wooden bridges and through tropical gardens bursting with frangipani trees. Our guests visit in the late afternoon when the light is perfect for photos.

All of these venues are featured on our Taste Siem Reap’s Hidden Gems and Taste Art & Cocktails tours. Book either tour and we guarantee you’ll get some great photos to take home.
