- Banteay Chhmar - To visit this Angkor-era treasure, the tour departs from Siem Reap early, venturing into the countryside, away from the usual tourist routes. Banteay Chhmar, which translates to ‘The Small Citadel’ or ‘Narrow Fortress’, is the fourth-largest temple of the Angkorian period, following Preah Khan, Angkor Thom, and Angkor Wat. It is regarded as the most significant temple of its era in the country, featuring a moat and reservoir in a remote, lush, and pristine environment. Although much about the temple remains unknown, it is established that King Jayavarman VII commissioned it in the late twelfth and early thirteenth century, and a shrine within the complex once housed the image of his Crown Prince.

Banteay Chhmar is situated approximately 60 kilometers from Serey Sophoan and was built during the reign of Jayavarman VII in the 12th to 13th century. The central temple once housed an image of Srindrakumaraputra (the Crown Prince), likely a son of Jayavarman VII.
