via Phnom Penh Post, 25 April 2021: The Angkor Archaeological Park reopens as scheduled after the latest lockdown.
Apsara National Authority and Angkor Enterprise on April 25 reopened Angkor Archaeological Park in Siem Reap province to visitors after it was temporarily closed on April 7 to prevent the spread of Covid-19 to locals.
This is accordance with Royal Government Circular No 53 dated April 25, which ended an inter-provincial travel ban and closures of tourism resorts nationwide, the two authorities said in joint statement issued on the same day.
“Apsara National Authority and Angkor Enterprise has reopened [the complex] for tourists to visit the temples and restarted sales of tickets to Angkor as usual,” they said.
From January to March, Angkor Enterprise sold a total of 4,482 tickets to foreign visitors, which generated $185,079, down 98.97 per cent from the same period last year.
