As of May 2023, Cambodia’s tourism industry is slowly recovering from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The country has implemented various measures to ensure the safety of tourists, such as requiring vaccination certificates and negative COVID-19 test results upon entry, and enforcing social distancing and mask-wearing in public places.

In recent years, Cambodia has been working to diversify its tourism offerings beyond the temples of Angkor Wat. The country has been promoting its beaches, national parks, and cultural attractions in an effort to attract more tourists.

In 2022, Cambodia welcomed approximately 2 million international tourists, which is still well below pre-pandemic levels. However, this represents a significant increase from the previous year, when the country only received around 1 million visitors due to travel restrictions and lockdowns.

The government has also been investing in infrastructure and tourism development projects, such as the construction of new airports and the expansion of existing ones, as well as the development of ecotourism initiatives and community-based tourism programs.

Overall, while the tourism industry in Cambodia still faces challenges due to the pandemic and other factors, there is optimism that the country’s diverse attractions and ongoing development efforts will continue to attract more visitors in the coming years.
