- Beng Mealea - Discover the fascinating 11th-century Beng Mealea temple, built by King Suryavarman II, which served as a prototype for the renowned Angkor Wat. Hidden in the jungle, reaching Beng Mealea is an adventure. Isolated during Cambodia’s civil war, it is the largest temple outside the main Angkor complex. Some parts are well-preserved, while others are in ruins, with tree roots enveloping many walls and doorways. The eerie atmosphere offers a stark contrast to the more frequented temples near Angkor Wat. Beng Mealea shares many features with Angkor Wat, including three encircling galleries, four gates and entrances, and a pair of interior libraries, but it has only one central tower compared to Angkor Wat’s five.
- Ancient Quarry - Visit the site where the Khmer people quarried stone to construct Angkor Wat. Here, you’ll see hundreds of stone pieces cut and left since the 12th century. A tour guide will explain the ancient techniques of stone cutting and transportation used to build Angkor Wat.
