Day
one: ( Ta Prohm, Pre Rup temple, Banteay Samre and Banteay Srey temple for 7-8
hours).
At 7:30 am, you will be taken in a
Car/ minivan to jungle-clap temple of Ta Promh. You’ll see how the
tentacle-like tree roots are slowly strangling the surviving stones. It’s an
evocative sight. Then head to Pyramid Pre Rup which built in the second
halt of 10 century (961 AD) to dedicate to Shiva God and the king's ancestors
combined. Later on, visit less-popular Banteay Samre temple of Angkor Wat
style.
Lunch Break.
In the afternoon, visit Banteay
Srei 'Citadel of the Women', and it is said that it must have been built
by a woman, as the elaborate carvings are supposedly too fine for the hand of a
man. Banteay Srei is one of the few temples around Angkor to be
commissioned not by a king but by a Brahman, who may have been a tutor to
Jayavarman V
Back to the hotel.
Day two: Angkor Wat, Basei ChamKrong, South
gate of Angkor Thom, Bayon, Baphoun, Phimeanakas, royal palance, Preah
Palilay, terrace of elephant and terrace of leper king and Preah Khan temple
for 7-8 hours.
At 8 am, transporting you to
the temple complex by a car / minivan and then, visit the spectacular Angkor
Wat. During this time of the day the crowds are at a minimum letting you
view this amazing structure at its most serene.
Then head north to see Basei
ChamKrong built in 947 AD by Harshavarman I and completed by
Rajendravarman II, dedicated to Siva (Hindu) as a pyramid temple, which it has
a similar plan to a Pyramid in the ancient Maya city of Tikal in around 741 AD
in Central America. Then move to smiling-face Bayon temple
standing right in the middle of Angkor Thom, the ancient city with a population
of about 300,000 people in thirteenth century. Later on, visit nearby
temples, Baphoun, Phimeanakas, Royal palace, Preah
Palilay, terrace of elephant and terrace of leper king.
