| Day 1 - Siem Reap - Angkor Wat |
• Arrival in Siem Reap
• Transfer
• Sightseeing Angkor
• Visit Angkor Thom
a fortified Royal City (10 square kilometers) built by King
Jayavarman VII, who ruled from 1181 to 1201. The city has five
monumental gates and is encircled by a moat 100 meters wide.
In the center of the walled city are the city’s most important
monuments including Bayon, Baphuon, the Terrace of Elephants,
the Terrace of the Leper King and Phimeanakas with Royal Enclosure.
• Bayon: Jayavarman VII's temple mountain that stands
at the center of Angkor Thom. It is one of the most popular
of Angkor's monuments and a place of narrow corridors, steep
flights of stairs and an amazing collection of towers decorated
with over 200 smiling faces.
• Baphuon: the pyramid shape represents the mythical
Mount Meru and marks the center of the city that was here before
Angkor Thom.
• Phimeanakas: near the center of what was once
the royal palace within Angkor Thom. Phimeanakas means ‘Celestial
Palace’, though today there is not much left to indicate
its former splendour.
• Former Royal Palace: nothing remains today except
two pools that were used by royalty for washing.
• Terrace of elephants: this terrace was used for
viewing public ceremonies and was a base for the King’s
grand audience hall. The famous lines of elephants are at either
end of the retaining walls.
• Terrace of the leper king: North of the Terrace
of Elephants is a platform named ‘Terrace of the Leper
King’. On the platform is a nude statue – one of Angkor’s
mysteries.Visit temple for sunset
Watch the sun set over the Cambodian countryside from the upper

| Day 2 - Angkor Wat |
• Visit Angkor Wat
a temple dedicated to the Hindu god Vishnu by King Suryavarman
II, who reigned between 1131 and 1150. It was constructed over
a period of 30 years and is world famous for its beauty and
splendor. Angkor Wat features the longest continuous bas-relief
in the world, which runs along the outer gallery walls and narrates
stories from Hindu mythology. In 1992 the UNESCO declared the
monument and the whole city of Angkor a World Heritage Site.
• Visit Ta Prohm
one of the most popular attractions of Angkor as much of the
jungle has not been cleared and it looks very much as most of
the Angkor monuments would have appeared when European explorers
first stumbled across them.
• Visit Banteay Srei Temple
built in the late 10th century, it is a Hindu temple dedicated
to Shiva. The temple is square with entrances on the east and
west. Of main interest are the three central towers which are
decorated with male and female divinities and beautiful filigree
relief work.
