Awesome experience learning about wildlife in Cambodia and the conservation team is doing a great job at preserving wildlife. My guide Yet was very informative and explained the process of taking care of the wildlife before releasing the animals to the wild.

Don't miss out! - Better than most U.S. Aquariums

Hands down the best thing to do in Siem Reap. A hidden gem outside of the city. I arrived by motor bike but you can also tuktuk or car here. A huge variety of species both from Cambodia and elsewhere. They support bringing back endanger species of the area with funckyioning breeding programs. I ended up on a guided tour and I HIGHLY recommend it. Our aquarium provided tour guide, Yet knew everything to know about the animals, history and facility. Admission is 20 USD for foreigners. Spent about 2 to 3 hours here but you could make it an all day thing.
