CAMBODIA -- One of the world’s most remarkable cultural attractions – the temples of Angkor Wat – will play host to a remarkable series of live dance performances in December.
The show will provide visitors with a unique opportunity to appreciate the architectural wonder, combined with the richness of Cambodian and French art and culture.
Les Nuits d’Angkor is a French–Cambodian concept launched in 2000 to capture the spirit and history of the venue via dance performances and a spectacular light show that displays Angkor Wat at its most dramatic.
This year Sofitel Royal Angkor Golf & Spa Resort is offering an exclusive one-night package only on the 17th of December 2005 when only 600 seats are available. It will be a truly premium cultural experience!
For the second year in a row the Cambodian Royal Ballet and a French dance company, the Jean Claude Gallotta Dance Company, will perform in unison.
The Cambodian Royal Ballet is internationally renowned, with UNESCO proclaiming it as “a masterpiece of oral and intangible heritage”. The Jean Claude Gallotta Company is also known for its contribution to multicultural choreography, representing the traditions of the past while also looking towards the future.
The package includes one night accommodation and breakfast, round trip airport transfers, transfers to and from Angkor Wat for the performance and a Late Night Supper under the stars poolside at Sofitel, including a glass of champagne, for US$183 net per person, based on double occupancy and including government tax.
For guests already booked at the Sofitel over this period, tickets are available for an additional US$70 per person net including government tax. Availability is strictly limited and with flights to Siem Reap very busy, interested travellers are advised to book early.
