A Journey Through Time and Culture

Avani Hotels & Resorts invites modern travellers to embark on an extraordinary cultural escape, seamlessly connecting two of Southeast Asia’s most iconic UNESCO World Heritage sites. This exclusive adventure package links the awe-inspiring temples of Angkor Wat in Cambodia with the timeless charm of Luang Prabang in Laos. With 2025 marking the 30th anniversary of Luang Prabang’s UNESCO designation, there has never been a better time to rediscover its rich history, perfectly paired with the legendary wonders of Angkor.

FCC Angkor by Avani: A Gateway to Angkor’s Wonders

Nestled in Siem Reap’s historic French Quarter, FCC Angkor by Avani has long been a meeting place for foreign correspondents and archaeologists captivated by Angkor’s ancient splendour. Just minutes from the legendary temple complex, this heritage-inspired retreat seamlessly blends colonial elegance with modern comfort. Guests will enjoy a two-night stay in a beautifully appointed room, a complimentary upgrade, daily breakfast, and an explorer’s kit to enhance their journey.

Angkor Wat

Each morning begins with guided meditation led by a local monk, setting a peaceful tone for the day’s explorations. Guests will travel by vintage Jeep or Vespa to uncover the secrets of Angkor Thom, the enigmatic Bayon Temple, and Ta Prohm, famous for its ancient tree-root embrace, as seen in Lara Croft: Tomb Raider. A private Cambodian lunch overlooking the serene Srah Srang reservoir offers a truly exclusive dining experience within the temple grounds. Afternoons bring a taste of local traditions with a herbal tea session hosted by Unn Pari Sophary, founder of the Herbal Kulen brand.

Avani+ Luang Prabang: 30 Years of UNESCO Heritage

Avani+ Luang Prabang places travellers in the heart of this charming Laotian town, surrounded by golden-spired temples, bustling cafés, and the tranquil banks of the Mekong River. With 2025 marking 30 years since Luang Prabang was recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage site, its unique blend of French colonial architecture, centuries-old Buddhist traditions, and vibrant street life is more captivating than ever. Guests will stay for two nights at Avani+ Luang Prabang, complete with a complimentary upgrade and daily breakfast.

Here, the pace slows down, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in the town’s serene rhythms. Mornings begin with the revered ritual of alms giving, where saffron-robed monks collect offerings at dawn. The afternoon offers ultimate relaxation with a complimentary 60-minute Lao massage at the hotel’s Anantara Spa, easing away the day’s adventures. As the sun sets, a peaceful cruise along the Mekong River provides the perfect finale to an unforgettable journey.
