Important Notes
We will start at 08:00 am. Start your day with a visit to the Rolous Group Temples, which are located about 15 kilometers east of Siem Reap. These temples were the first capital of the Khmer Empire and are considered to be precursors to the grander temples of Angkor Wat. The three main temples are:
Admire the intricate sandstone carvings depicting Hindu deities and scenes from mythology.
Ascend the seven-tiered pyramid temple, a representation of Mount Meru, the sacred mountain in Hinduism.
Though partially submerged due to fluctuating water levels, this temple dedicated to Shiva offers a glimpse into the architectural brilliance of the era.
A Journey to Tonle Sap Lake - After a delectable local lunch (not typically included in tours), embark on a scenic drive to the majestic Tonle Sap, the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia. Board a traditional boat and cruise through the vibrant floating villages, witnessing the unique way of life on the lake. Observe the houses on stilts, floating schools, and fishermen casting their nets.
Sunset Spectacle at Phnom Krom - As the day winds down, head towards Phnom Krom, a small hill offering panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. Hike up the hill and find a perfect spot to witness the mesmerizing sunset. Watch the sky ablaze with vibrant colors as the sun dips below the horizon, casting a golden glow over Tonle Sap.
