Angkor Wat Sunrise Equinox

Being considered as one of the shrines of the ancient world, Angkor Wat temple is the most popular venue in Southeast Asia to celebrate the spring equinox. Though less popular venue compared to the Stonehenge in England or the El Castillo in Mexico, Angkor Wat features a very distinctive and spectacular sunrise during the equinox. The sun rises exactly behind the central tower, the most sacred point of the temple rising 65 meters above the ground. Sunrise in Angkor Wat is a very popular attraction for tourists but also locals with hundreds of people in attendance. For this equinox sunrise tour, with more people in the crowd, I will assist you each step of the way to make sure you bring home the best pictures without the crowd visible on them. We will then explore, walk around corridors, and discover areas inside the Temple City of Angkor Wat where you can capture unique photographs. I will guide you to the right location for the equinox and will make sure that the camera settings are correct to get the perfect shots. Slideshow above are some sample shots from previous sunrise equinox. Aside from Angkor Wat, we will also explore a hidden temple in the jungle and I will guide through the secret corridors and secret chambers of Preah Khan temple. There is an optional 1:1 editing workshop in the afternoon to review and edit your pictures using Lightroom and Photoshop.
