Koh Ker and Boeng Mealea Jungle Explorer

Points forts

Inclus

Itinéraire

1. This morning depart your hotel at 8:00am you begin with a drive for two hours and a half through scenic rural Cambodia to Koh Ker, which is a 10th-century temple complex in the north Cambodian jungle. A former capital of the Khmer Empire, the site is now remote and heavily forested. Great views await the visitor at the end of an adventurous climb. Then continue to visit The Prasat Krahom, meaning "red temple," is known for its sandstone carvings, while Prasat Pram is covered in strangler figs.

   2 hEntrée incluse

2. Enjoy your lunch at your own expense and have a short rest then have a short drive to Boeng Mealea, stands almost forgotten in the jungle and getting to the site is quite an adventure in itself. Isolated during Cambodia's civil war, Boeng Mealea was under the control of the Khmer Rouge for decades but has since been ‘de-mined’ and outsiders can now safely visit this temple. It is the largest temple outside the main Angkor complex and in places it is remarkably intact, but in other places utterly destroyed; tree roots envelop many of the temple walls and doorways. The atmosphere here is an eerie but welcome contrast to the more visited temples closer to Angkor Wat. Boeng Mealea shares many characteristics with Angkor Wat, but on a smaller scale. It has three encircling galleries, the same four gates and entrances, and a pair of interior libraries. It differs from Angkor Wat in having only one central tower instead of the famous five towers of Angkor Wat.

About Siem Reap

Siem Reap, ville au bord de la rivière près d'Angkor, vaste complexe de temples khmers du Cambodge, avec marchés nocturnes et centre tranquille.

Angkor Vat, souvent présenté comme le plus grand monument religieux du monde, s'élève au-dessus de ses douves dans une silhouette de tours en bouton de lotus à couper le souffle au lever du soleil. Tout près, la cité fortifiée d'Angkor Thom abrite le Bayon, avec ses plus de deux cents visages de pierre sereins, la terrasse des Éléphants et le Baphuon, tandis que Ta Prohm est enserré par les racines de fromagers et de figuiers étrangleurs géants.
