Siem Reap
Breakfast Lunch Dinner
Early morning, you will depart for an overland drive with your guide through the countryside about 2:00 hour drive for a visit less trodden temple of Koh Ker, though it is somewhat puzzling that this remote site—located 120 km northeast of Siem Reap. The Archaeological Site of Ancient Lingapura was listed as the World Heritage in 2023 by UNESCO.
The region was briefly the capital, lasting 20 years or less than during the early 9th century. The compound has found nearly two hundred temples, but most of them are buried in the ground. You probably spend about 2:00 hours exploring some temples amongst the complex with several temples.
The final stop is Prasat Thom, where you will be impressed by the seven-tiered sandstone pyramid. It was probably the state temple built in 928. From the ground level, the side of the square building measures 62 meters and the height is 36 meters from which there is an excellent view above the forest floor.
Picnic lunch at local restaurant.
Mid-afternoon head back to Siem Reap.
