Pattaya's beach strip and the Angkor temples of Siem Reap are linked by one of Southeast Asia's classic overland trips, but right now the land route is shut. Land borders and crossings between Thailand and Cambodia remain suspended, which closes the Aranyaprathet-Poipet crossing too, and the UK Foreign Office advises against all but essential travel within 20 km of the frontier.[1]
