What to pack for Cambodia in the winter

In Cambodia during the winter, temperatures can range from cool and comfortable to chilly in the evenings.

It is recommended to pack light layers such as long-sleeved shirts, sweaters, and jackets to adjust to the changing weather throughout the day. Additionally, it is advisable to bring a mix of casual clothing for daytime sightseeing and more formal outfits for evening events or dining out.

When visiting Cambodia in the winter, it is important to pack a mix of breathable fabrics such as cotton or linen to stay comfortable in the warm daytime temperatures. Don't forget to bring comfortable walking shoes for exploring temples and markets, as well as a swimsuit for enjoying the warm weather if you plan on visiting the coastal areas.

Lastly, it is advisable to pack a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself from the strong sun during the day.

During the winter months in Cambodia, from November to February, the climate is generally cool and dry with temperatures ranging from 20-26 degrees Celsius.

The cool, dry northeast monsoon brings relief from the intense heat and humidity of the rainy season, making it an ideal time to visit tourist attractions such as Angkor Wat and explore the country's natural beauty. However, the cool temperatures can sometimes drop to around 16 degrees Celsius, especially in the early morning and at night, so visitors should pack some warm clothing to stay comfortable.

Overall, winter in Cambodia offers pleasant weather conditions for outdoor activities and sightseeing.
