Who this list is for
Built for an Angkor Wat sunrise followed by nearby temples, this packing list suits visitors starting before daylight and staying out through a warm morning. It keeps the focus on modest clothing, a small daypack, and items that work with a tuk-tuk or driver.
How to use this list
First secure the essentials: passport copy, Angkor Archaeological Park pass, tuk-tuk or driver contact details, and hotel address saved offline. Pack one refillable water bottle per person with electrolyte sachets, then add sunscreen, sun hat, sunglasses, insect repellent, and the light rain poncho. Finish with a shoulder-covering shirt, long lightweight trousers or below-knee skirt, and secure-strap walking sandals.
Common mistakes
Do not assume sunrise means cool conditions all morning. Water, sunscreen, and breathable modest clothing still matter once you move between temples. Avoid depending on a dead phone for transport details; bring the portable battery pack. A camera without its spare camera battery can also be frustrating on a long temple morning.
