From the 9th to the 15th centuries, Siem Reap locating in Northwest Cambodia was famous for being the site of the Khmer Empire's successive capitals. This region is the gateway to the well-known Angkor temple complex - especially Angkor Wat which is Siem Reap's biggest tourist draw. With a wealth of cultural attractions (most beautiful biggest temples in the world, traditional markets & museums) and interesting activities (day tour to visit some floating villages on Tonle Sap Lake & book the cultural performances), discovering Siem Riep is definitely a highlight for many tourists travelling through Southeast Asia.
Angkor Wat that is outstanding for both its incredible detail & grand scale was built by Suryavarman II between the ninth and fifteenth centuries and this awe-inspiring temple is a must-visit in the bucket list of any traveller. Visiting Angkor Wat, you will learn more about the history, meaning and features of this impressive and iconic temple.
Bayon Temple is located in the heart of the ancient city - Angkor Thom & considered as one of the "big three - Bayon Temple, Angkor Wat & Ta Prohm" sites that every traveller to Siem Reap should visit. This temple was originally called "Jayagiri" (Victory Mountain) but after the French occupancy period, it was renamed to "Bayon Temple".
Ta Prohm is also called "Tomb Raider Temple" and unlike the other monuments of Angkor, this place is a battle between the incredible architecture and the nature in the Cambodian jungle. You will have a great opportunity to witness its walls, crumbling towers have been swallowed by the vast root systems.
The Angkor National Museum is an ideal place for visitors who enjoy and appreciate history and artefacts. Situated along Charles de Gaulle Boulevard, this museum has 8 galleries with more than 1,000 artefacts explaining the ancient Khmer civilization, religions, kings, and Angkorian temples.
It takes only around 30km from Siem Reap centre and approximately 20km from the main Angkor complex to Banteay Srei. This temple goes by many names such as "The lady temple", "The tiny temple" or "The pink temple" is well known for its intricate design & decoration carved in pinkish sandstone.
Off the usual tourist routes, the spectacular sight - Beng Mealea is also known as the "Lotus Pond" or the "Jungle Temple", was constructed by King Suryavarman II in the early 12th century with the special architecture of Angkor Wat. This temple will provide you a precious chance to experience one of the most mysterious temples at Angkor.
