Prasat Bakong - Day 01: You will be picked up at the lobby of hotel and go to visit Bakong built in late ninth century (881) by king Indravarman I dedicated to Siva (Hindu).
Preah Ko - Preah Ko, built in late ninth century (879) for the king’s parents, maternal grandparents, and a previous king, Jayavarman II and his wife.
Lolei - Lolei built on an islet in the center of a large reservoir (now rice fields) by Yasovarman I, the founder to the first city at Angkor.1
Artisans Angkor - Les Artisan D’Angkor, fine art School, place for workshop wood and stone carving, Lacquering, silver plated and silk painting.
Psar Chaa - Old Market - Old Market will have what you are looking for. Browse and use your bartering skills to bring home your memories of Siem Reap.
Banteay Srei - Day 02: We will go to visit Banteay Srey, well known for its beautiful delicate carvings in warm pink sandstone. This late 10th century structure is fairly compact and very different from other Angkorian temples.
Banteay Samre - Banteay Samre – a larger temple which is often overlooked by tourists and looks gorgeous.
Pre Rup - The beautiful temple was built of bricks.
Neak Pean - Neak Pean Temple, a small island temple located in the middle of the last baray ( the Preah Khan Baray or Jayatataka ) to be constructed by a khmer king in the Angkor area. The central temple sits at the axis of a cross or lotus pattern of eight pools.
Ta Som - Prasat Tasom, built in the late 12th century (C.E) classic Bayon-style by Jayavarman VII in Buddhist.
Preah Khan - Preah Khan Temple is a huge, highly explorable monastic complex. It originally served as Buddhist monastery and school, engaging over 1000 monks. Travelling back to Siem Reap you will pass through picturesque villages and may wish to stop for rural photo opportunities along the way.
Angkor Thom South Gate - Day 03: We go to visit South Gate of Angkor Thom. On the left side of the moat, 54 ‘devas’ (guardian gods) pull the head of the snake ‘Shesha’ while on the right side 54 ‘asuras’ (demon gods) pull the snake’s tail in the opposite direction.
Bayon Temple - Bayon temple, over 200 large faces carved on the 54 tower give this temple its majestic character and the bas-reliefs contain genre scenes of everyday life-markets, fishing, festivals with cockfights and jugglers and so on-and history scenes with battles and processions.
Baphuon Temple - Baphoun, built in middle of the 11th century (1060) by king Udayadityavarman II, dedicated to Siva (Hindu).
Phimeanakas - Phimean Akas, built in late tenth century-beginning of the 11th century by King Jayavamen V and Udayadityavarman I and dedicated to Hindu.
Terrace of the Elephants - Elephant Terrace is used to be the audient hall for the king.
Terrace of the Leper King - The place was used for treatment.
Ta Prohm Temple - Taprom ( The Ancestor Brahma, Jungle Temple ), shrouded in dense jungle. The temple of Ta Prohm is ethereal in aspect and conjures up a romantic aura. Fig, banyan and kapok trees spread their gigantic roots over stones, probing walls and terraces apart, as their branches and leaves intertwine to form a roof over the structures. Trunks of trees twist amongst stone pillars.
Angkor Wat - Angkor Wat, first a Hindu, then subsequently a Buddhist, temple complex in Cambodia and the largest religious monument in the world. The temple was built by the Khmer King Suryavarman II in the early 12th century in Yasodharapura,( present-day Angkor), the capital of the Khmer Empire, as his state temple and eventual mausoleum. Breaking from the Shaivism tradition of previous kings, Angkor Wat was instead dedicated to Vishnu. As the best-preserved temple at the site, it is the only one to have remained a significant religious center since its foundation. The temple is at the top of the high classical style of Khmer architecture. It has become a symbol of Cambodia, appearing on its national flag. Back to hotel & Overnight at hotel. End of Service.
