Day2: Siem Reap – Outlying Temples &
local lives
This morning we visit the ancient Khmer
civilization site of Hariharalaya
which flourished in the late 9th
and earlier 10th centuries. These
are the earliest temples in the Angkor area
and are referred to the Rolous group
(Lo Lei, Preah Koh, and Bakhong Temples).
Lunch with the local family and then we will
continue to drive to the
rural outskirt 35km from Angkor area to
visit the smallest, but magnificent,
Banteay Srei built in the 10th
Century and dedicated to Shiva. The temple
was the birthplace of Khmer classical style
architecture and the bas-relief work is the
best example of Khmer classical art
remaining. The pink sandstone structure
bears a series of striking and beautiful
sculptures, lintels, pediments and friezes.
Khmers say the temple must have been carved
by women for the details are too fine for
the hands of a man. On the way back to Siem
Reap we will visit the Banteay
Samre Temple adorned with impressive
reliefs depicting scenes of Vishnu as well
as Krishna legends.
Meals: Breakfast,
lunch
Accommodation: Hotel in Siem Reap
Day3: Siem Reap – Angkor Tours –
Departure
Early morning, visit
the picturesque Ta Prohm that had
nearly disappeared into the jungle and
remains overgrown, an oddly haunting and
exotic scene. The magnificent roots of a
tree, pushing between the huge stone blocks
of the temple in a sort of embrace, evoke
feelings that you may remember forever.
And continue to visit
the intricately carved
Khmer ruins at Angkor Wat - one of
the world’s most impressive ruins. The
temple still owns fine Apsara carvings in
Angkorian era art. At 09am come back
to hotel for breakfast and rest in the noon
to avoid of the heats of the day until 15:00
continue exploring the
mysterious Royal city Angkor Thom.
Its 50-tower temple is an awesome sight. At
first glance it seems a shapeless mass of
stone, but further scrutiny reveals a face,
and then another and another until suddenly
you are engulfed by the silent, heavy,
enigmatic and silent gaze through
half-closed eyes, staring out from a
primitive and remote time. Further, visit to
the surroundings of the complex including
the Baphou, Elephant Terraces, Lepper
King Terrace and Royal Place area and
visit one more ruin in Angkor Area of
Preah Khan temple, built in 12th
century by King Jayavarman VII and it is the
same style to Ta Prom Temple. Transfer to
Siem Reap Airport for departure
