Banteay Srei Temple

Banteay Srei is cut from stone of a pinkish hue and includes some of the finest stone carving anywhere on earth. Begun in 967 CE, it is one of the smallest sites at Angkor, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in stature. The art gallery of Angkor, this Hindu temple dedicated to Shiva is wonderfully well preserved, and many of its carvings are three-dimensional

Tonle Sap Lake
Kampong Phluk is a commune in Prasat Bakong District in Siem Reap Province Cambodia. The name means “Harbor of the Tusks”. The community largely depends on fishing for survival, primarily shrimp, spending Cambodia’s wet season fishing. During the dry season (November–April) as the river thins due to receding water, many turn to farming to supplement their income. Tourism, which started in the village approximately 10 years ago, is also a growing part of the local economy.

The first day tour is the remoted area and those activities are amazing with Cambodia cultural life, customs, We organize this activity to our clients for the new experience and enjoy the holiday.

Day 2

ANGKOR WATΒ TEMPLE

(Sunrise at the early morning) or Without sunrise, starting time at 8:00 am

Angkor Wat is the largest and most famous Khmer temple, built in the 12th century, between 1113 -1150, during the reign of King Suryavarman II; for Hindu temple. Standing 65 meters high, the temple is surrounded by a large moat [Khmer called Ko Teok]. The exterior and interior walls are covered with amazing base-reliefs.

Ta Prohm Temple
After visiting the iconic Angkor Wat temple, our driver will take you to Ta Prohm, known as the β€œJungle Temple,” which was constructed by Jayavarman VII in honor of his mother. The temple has been engulfed by the jungle. The remarkable Bayon architecture blends seamlessly with the surrounding foliage. It has gained particular fame due to its appearance in the film β€œLara Croft: Tomb Raider,” starring Angelina Jolie in 2001. This setting provides a memorable glimpse of nature reclaiming a once-great civilization.

Angkor Thom Temple
After having breakfast, our driver will take the group to the Great Literate with sandstone bridge called South Gate of Angkor Thom. This entrance is the most stunning and well-preserved of the five that lead into Angkor Thom, which is the largest complex within the Angkor Archaeological Park. The royal city of Angkor Thom was constructed during the late 12th to early 13th century.
At Bayon Temple, you will explore the primary temple, Bayon, which was built by King Jayavarman VII. This temple is renowned for its 54 towers adorned with sculptural decorations, many featuring the iconic faces carved into the stone. The Terrace of the Elephants, as the name suggests, consists of three platforms surrounded by intricately carved elephants and depictions of an elephant hunt. The Terrace of Elephants features five piers that reach out towards the Central Square – three placed in the middle and one at each end. The central part of the retaining wall is adorned with life-sized figures of garudas and lions; at both ends are sections of the renowned procession of elephants, accompanied by their Khmer mahouts.

Bayon Temple
The “Four Smiling Faces of Bayon Temple” refer to the massive, serene faces carved into the towers of Bayon Temple, a key structure within the Angkor Thom complex in Cambodia. These faces, often depicted with half-closed eyes and gentle smiles, are a defining feature of the temple and are believed to represent either the bodhisattva AvalokiteΕ›vara, or a combination of the Khmer king Jayavarman VII and the deity.

Phimeanakas Temple and Royal Palace
This royal temple is among the lesser-sized temples in Angkor. From the summit of its 12-meter / 39-foot
pyramid, one can enjoy a fantastic view of the entire archaeological site of Angkor Thom.
The Phimeanakas is referred to in English as the “Celestial Temple” and is a Hindu temple from the 10th century, constructed in the Khleang style. This three-tiered pyramid structure served as a venue for the worship of deities.

While it is smaller compared to other temples in the area, it still stands at a height of approximately 40 meters.
The name originates from a legend in which the king would ascend the stairs each night to be with the Naga princess. If the Naga did not appear one evening, it would signal the king’s demise and chaos would ensue throughout the kingdom.

Ta Nei Temple
Situated approximately 4.5 km (2.8 mi) from Angkor Wat, this quaint temple is not part of the primary tourist zones of Angkor, as tour buses do not access this location. Consequently, it tends to be less crowded, allowing you the opportunity to explore the temple of King Jayavarman VII alongside your guide.
