When entering King’s Road Angkor, visually you are struck by the architecture. The designers clearly understood the space they were working with, and their vision is beautiful. It will offer international and local visitors an authentic vision of a traditional Khmer wooden village – just as it exists today – along every river bank and lake in Cambodia. The waterwheel in the river, by the entry to the village symbolizes this idea. In times past, when Siem Reap was the Seat of the Angkor Kings, the waterwheel represented the achievement and sophistication of the Khmer Empire.
