Angkor Wat is not enough

Experts say Cambodia should not heavily rely on great Angkor Wat temple to survive its tourism sector, and suggest that more destinations needed as well.

The country’s tourism sector has been developing rapidly in the past few years, becoming a major source of income for the cash-strapped Southeast Asian country. About 1.7 million tourists visited Cambodia last year, roughly a 20 percent increase over 2005. About half of the visitors went to see Angkor temples in Siem Reap province, Cambodia’s main tourism hub.
