Affectionately known as Temple Town, Siem Reap (暹粒) in Cambodia has been rapidly developing over recent years to cater to tourists that stream through to witness the wonders of the Angkor Archaeological Park. Aside from these awe-inspiring ancient structures, there are plenty of other things to see and do, as well as countless places to eat and drink, and make the most of your nights out. Most people enjoy a night on the tiles of Siem Reap without incident, but street theft, scams, and other petty crimes can never be completely discounted in any major tourist destinations in the region. Pick pocketing and bag theft are the most common incidents, but can easily be avoided by simple use of common sense. Be aware that locals are very proud people, and displays of anger or rudeness from a foreigner are never well received.
You can guarantee yourself a great night by being cool and smart by following some basic rules:
※Don’t carry more money than you need: there are plenty of ATMS across town, and most Siem Reap establishments are relatively accessible.
※Try to keep to main roads and avoid walking alone, especially if you are lost.
※Keep wallets, handbags, mobile phones and cameras close to you, and don’t leave your belongings unattended anywhere: reducing the opportunities for theft is the best way to reduce the likelihood of it happening.
※Be careful (ladies especially)on motors or tuk-tuks not to leave bags hanging loosely over your shoulder. Keep them out of reach of passers-by, and the same goes for cameras too.
※If you hire a motorbike, try to buy your own padlock and never leave it unlocked, unless it’s in a ticket parking place
※Be polite and friendly with local people, whatever the situation.
※Negotiate your fare to avoid problems later.

【推荐2】If you’re a thrill seeker, here are several festivals and celebrations from around the world that will get your blood pumping.
Spain: Baby-Jumping
The Spanish village of Castrillo has some interesting ideas about childcare. Since the 17th century, the village has been holding a yearly ceremony in which babies are laid out on mat in the street. Actors dressed as devils then skip over them. It supposedly removes the children’s original sin. Nobody would blame you if you held your breath until the jumping part is over.
Italy: Fruit Battle
If oranges seem harmless to you, that’s probably because nobody has ever thrown one straight at your head. Every year in February the Italian town of Ivrea puts on an orange battle, in which the town overthrow a bad emperor. A horse-drawn cart carrying oranges and players representing the emperor’s evil helpers is drawn into the square. The people on foot have special uniforms. Cuts and hurts are to be expected. The orange juice in a cut is certainly an acquired taste. The battle looks like chaos, but there is an important limit: throwing oranges at the horses is strictly forbidden.
Japan: Extreme Log Ride
Once every six years the Onbashira festival takes place in the Lake Suwa region in Japan. The purpose of the festival is to replace the 16 logs that stand at the corners of the four buildings of the Suwa Grand Shrine. The celebrations begin in the mountains in April when 16 carefully chosen fir trees in the mountains are cut down using traditional logging tools. They are then dragged down to the temple without the use of mechanized equipment. So people have to work in large teams to hold them up mountains and across rivers. The entire journey, usually about 10 kilometers, is dangerous. This can result in many injuries and death.
