Day 2
Apr 18, 2020
Siem Reap, Cambodia
Guide Meal
This morning enjoy a visit of Angkor Wat temple, the largest temple in the world, with a volume of stone equaling that of the Cheops pyramid in Egypt.

Its symmetrical towers are stylized on the modern Cambodian flag. Conceived by Suryavarman II, Angkor Wat took an estimated 30 years to build. It is believed to have been a funeral temple for the king and has been occupied continuously by Buddhist monks and is well preserved.

We will also visit the Ta Prohm temple, the temple that has been left largely in its natural state since its “re-discovery” by French explorers. Surrounded by jungle, its labyrinth of stone hallways is overgrown with the roots and limbs of massive banyan trees, which envelop the stone like tentacles. It is one of the largest temples at Angkor, dedicated in 1186. Historians have noted its mystical charm.

In the afternoon, we continue to Banteay Srei; ‘the Woman Citadel’ - a tiny,enchanting temple, which is one of the jewels in this remarkable city. Built of red sandstone in the tenth century and dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva, the carved male and female figures in the niches are exquisitely executed in both style and proportion.

Continue to Banteay Samre, a temple at Angkor. Built under Suryavarman II and Yasovarman II in the early 12th century, it is a Hindu temple in the Angkor Wat style.
