Highlights
- Angkor Wat - Angkor Wat is the largest religious monument in the world, and the world’s most famous sunrise. It is an astonishingly large and ambitious complex symbolising the power and majesty of the ancient Angkor civilisation. Witness the most spectacular sunrise in the world! Afterwards we have breakfast nearby.
- Angkor Thom - Angkor Thom was the latter capital of the Angkor Empire. The road takes us through the famous South Gate, lined with gods and demons locked in an eternal tug-of-war. The temple of Bayon at the centre of the site is lined with countless beatific carved faces, gazing eternally at the surrounding forest.
- Ta Prohm - Ta Prohm is a picturesque and attractive ruin partially retaken by jungle. It is also known as ‘the Tomb Raider temple’, made famous by Angelina Jolie in the 2001 film.
- Ta Keo - Ta Keo was never finished, and as such has a very different aspect to most of the Angkor temples. It’s square, layered-pyramid shape makes it one of the more dramatic sites on the tour and climbing the terraces affords some beautiful views over the jungle.
- Banteay Kdei - Banteay Kdei is also known as ‘the citadel of monk’s cells’. It is partially overgrown with towering, sinous trees. The silk cotton tree roots weaving their way through the stones of the ruined walls is a famously beautiful sight.
