Apsara dance in Siem Riep
Soon the dancer appears in dazzling costume. In the ancient times the apsaras did not cover their upper body .This style of dancing and dress is also popular in Thailand where at one time the Apsara dancers of the Khmer empire were taken by force.
The MC announces the next sequence.
The Apsara dance is performed in the Angkor Mondial hotel in Siem Riep.
This one looks like a xylophone.
The dance started with traditional musicians warming up.
