Some may prefer an adjacent sealed road (for speed and/or comfort or if you aren't riding a mountain bike) if there's not too much traffic. You can cycleway all the way from Siem Reap township following the Siem Reap River upstream on the right bank then at about Street 60 it heads straight to Angkor Temple and to where you filmed the cycleway.

I tried the 100% in that shop! Crazy as I don't think I've had it before. Really nice place.

I have visit Siem Reap in 2023 and 2024 to understand the area and see Ankor Wat. I have followed many of your suggestions and find them quite alright. I will come back in a couple of years with my wife to show her the area. It is the only city in Cambodia I have visited. Is their any other city worth visiting?
