2. Our next stop is Beng Mealea, which means ‘Lotus Pond’ and its amazing ruins and underground passageways offer a unique experience for visitors to get lost in time. In its chaotic state, with collapsed galleries and towers, covered with a spread of vegetation there is something mysterious and enchanting about Beng Mealea. There are some superb examples of Apsara carvings on the extant parts of the temple, but the real charm of Beng Melea is its sense of ruined grandeur.

About Siem Reap

Siem Reap ist die Flussstadt neben Angkor, Kambodschas riesigem Komplex von Khmer-Tempeln, mit Nachtmärkten, Flusspromenaden und entspanntem Zentrum.

Angkor Wat, oft das größte religiöse Bauwerk der Welt genannt, erhebt sich über seinem Wassergraben in einer Silhouette aus Lotosknospentürmen, die bei Sonnenaufgang atemberaubend ist. Nebenan birgt die ummauerte Stadt Angkor Thom den Bayon mit seinen mehr als zweihundert gelassenen Steingesichtern, die Elefantenterrasse und den Baphuon, während Ta Prohm von den Wurzeln riesiger Kapokbäume und Würgefeigen umklammert wird.
