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, providing 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, Les Nuits d’Angkor will be held on the 17th, 18th, 19th of December 2004, at Angkor Wat. Reflecting the
east-meets-west theme, 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.
To
celebrate this event the Sofitel Royal Angkor Resort & Spa has
launched a special Performance Package available for the evening of 18 December, when only 600 seats are available.
