Siem Reap International Airport Ally way in Siem Reap City Angkor National Museum In Cambodia, they use American Dollars and Cambodia Riel. Most of the transactions can be done in American Dollar. To visit the Temples, you can get 1 day pass for $20, 2 or 3 day pass for $40 and 1 week pass for $60.  You can buy the pass at 5pm for the next day and still go to the temples for sunset the day before and  the pass will get activated from the next day only.  Wear lightweight clothing as the weather is humid in Cambodia and also while visiting the temples, you shouldn't wear revealing clothes.
