US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (pictured) has arrived in Cambodia, where she will visit the famed Angkor Wat temples and meet Cambodian leaders.
The chief US diplomat arrived in Siem Reap early Sunday on a flight from China's Hainan island, where she briefly met Chinese officials following her attendance at a regional summit in the Vietnamese capital, Hanoi.
US officials said Clinton was due later on Sunday to visit the 12th century Angkor Wat temple complex, Cambodia's main tourist attraction, which is located in the northwestern province of Siem Reap.
It is where the ancient Khmer empire built some 1000 temples spread over 160 square kilometres.
In Siem Reap, she will also meet members of a non-governmental organisation that specialises in fighting human trafficking, officials said.
On Monday she will travel to Phnom Penh to meet King Norodom Sihamoni, Prime Minister Hun Sen and Foreign Minister Hor Namhong, they added.
