How to reach Angkor Thom North Gate

Angkor Thom North Gate is quite accessible. Most visitors pass through it when they were following the Grand Circuit, from Angkor Thom onwards to Preah Khan, Neak Pean, Ta Som and other ruins. Alternatively, of course, you can come from the opposite direction, visiting Ta Som, Neak Pean and Preah Khan before arriving at the North Gate. If you are travelling independently, it is best to explore by tuk tuk. You can hire them from Siem Reap town.
