Features of travel in Cambodia in September
The tourist flow gradually dries up, because the weather conditions do not contribute to an exciting vacation. Tourists do not have the opportunity to enjoy a beach holiday and swimming, because the number of hours of sunshine is minimal and frequent rains force people to sit in their rooms. In addition, there is no way to enjoy long walks and see all the interesting sights, because such a pastime cannot be enjoyable in bad weather conditions. It is also important to be prepared for the fact that the ratio of humidity and temperature is not comfortable for weather-sensitive people.
There are no interesting events in Cambodia in September, so tourists do not have the opportunity to experience the culture. Among the holidays are Cambodian Constitution Day (September 24) and Memorial Day (early September). Both holidays are important for Cambodians, but they are not of particular interest to tourists.
Among the advantages it should be noted the possibility of easy booking of a hotel room and affordable prices. Despite these advantages, many people point out that a vacation in Cambodia in September is not the best option. Tourists who decide to visit Cambodia in September, in the future refuse this travel option, because there are much more negative sides than positive ones. In order to get to know Cambodia, it is advisable to choose another month, because September is one of the worst periods for travel.
