Afterward, immerse yourself in the wild atmosphere of Beng Mealea, an atmospheric, overgrown temple built by King Suryavarman II—the same monarch behind Angkor Wat.

Itinerary
The Koh Ker Temple Group is a major 10th-century archaeological complex in northern Cambodia. Located roughly 120 km northeast of Siem Reap in Preah Vihear Province, it served as the temporary capital of the Khmer Empire under King Jayavarman IV from 928 to 944 CE.
Beng Mealea meaning "Lotus Pond" is one of the most atmospheric and adventurous temples in the Angkor region. Located about 40 km east of the main Angkor Wat complex, it offers visitors a rare "Indiana Jones" style experience of exploring ancient ruins swallowed by the Cambodian jungle.

About Siem Reap
Siem Reap is the riverside town beside Angkor, Cambodia's vast complex of Khmer temples, with night markets, river walks and a relaxed centre.
Angkor Wat, often called the largest religious monument in the world, rises above its moat in a silhouette of lotus-bud towers that is breathtaking at sunrise. Nearby, the walled city of Angkor Thom holds the Bayon, with its more than two hundred serene stone faces, the Terrace of the Elephants and the Baphuon, while Ta Prohm is gripped by the roots of giant silk-cotton and strangler fig trees.
