Activity itinerary

Srah Srang

1h
Admission ticket included

Srah Srang was dug in the Mid-10th century by initiative of Kavindrarimathana, Buddhist minister of the King Rajendravarman II. It was modified around the year 1200 by Jajavarman VII, who added the laterite landing-stage at its western side, probably because the East Baray had been overwhelmed by sediment and had begun malfunctioning. Srah Srang measures 700 by 350 m, there is a small temple standing in the middle of it. The landing stage, opposite the entrance to Banteay Kdei, is a popular site for viewing the Sun Rise cruciform, franked by Naga balustrades which end with the upright head of a serpent, mounted by a Garuda with its wings unfurled. Two guardian lions flank the steps that lead down to the water

Angkor Thom

10m

Hidden Gem: Your guide will take to you a place that most tourists have never seen it. Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer.

Preah Khan Temple

2h
Admission ticket included

Preah Khan (Royal Sword) is a temple in the Angkor area. It was built in the 12th century by the King Jayavarman VII to honour his father. The temple is flat in design, with a basic plan of successive rectangular galleries around a Buddhist sanctuary complicated by Hindu satellite temples and numerous later additions. Like the nearby Ta Prohm, Preah Khan has been left largely unrestored, with numerous trees and other vegetation growing among the ruins.

Neak Pean

1h

Neak Pean (or Neak Poan), the entwined serpents. It was built on an artificial island in the middle of a Reservoir (3.5 km by 1 km), which was associated with the Preah Khan temple. Neak Pean was built by King Jayavarman VII in the 2nd half of the 12th century.

Ta Som

1h

Ta Som is a small temple at Angkor, built at the end of the 12th century for King Jayavarman VII. It is located north east of Angkor Thom and just east of Neak Pean. The King dedicated the temple to his father Dharanindravarman II (Paramanishkalapada) who was King of the Khmer Empire from 1150 to 1160. The temple consists of a single shrine located on one level and surrounded by enclosure laterite walls. Like the nearby Preah Khan and Ta Prohm the temple was left largely unrestored, with numerous trees and other vegetation growing among the ruins.[1] In 1998, the World Monuments Fund (WMF) added the temple to their restoration programme and began work to stabilise the structure to make it safer for visitors.

Angkor Thum

15m

Secret stop: A majestic place that set the tone for the day’s adventure. Don’t listen to what they say, go to see. All journeys have secret destinations of which the travellers are unaware.

Pre Rup

50m

Pre Rup temple was built by King Rajendravarman in 10 centurary. It is a temple mountain of combined brick, laterite and sandstone construction. The temple's name is a comparatively modern one meaning "turn the body". This reflects the common belief among Cambodians that funerals were conducted at the temple, with the ashes of the body being ritually rotated in different directions as the service progressed.

East Mebon

50m

The East Mebon temple was built in the 10th century by the King Rajendravarman. It stands on what was an artificial island at the centre of the now-dry East Baray reservoir (7.5km by 1.8km). The East Mebon was dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva and honours the parents of the king. Its location reflects Khmer architects’ concern with orientation and cardinal directions. Visitors looking out from the upper level today are left to imagine the vast expanses of water that formerly surrounded the temple. Four landing stages at the base give reminder that the temple was once reached by boat.
