7. After exploring the sacred sites and natural beauty of Phnom Kulen, continue your journey through the Cambodian countryside to Beng Mealea Temple. Beng Mealea was built in the 12th century during the reign of King Suryavarman II. It was dedicated to the Hindu god Vishnu. The temple is made of sandstone, and it is enclosed by a moat. It has three concentric enclosures, each of which is surrounded by a gallery. The central sanctuary is now in ruins, but the other structures are still relatively well-preserved. Beng Mealea is a popular tourist destination, but it is not as crowded as some of the other temples in Angkor. This is because it is located further away from Siem Reap city, and it is more difficult to get to. However, the temple's remote location and its overgrown state make it a unique and special place to visit.

   1 h

8. Kompong Phluk Village is a floating village on the Tonle Sap Lake in Cambodia. It is located about 16 kilometers (10 miles) southeast of Siem Reap, the gateway to the Angkor temples. The village is home to about 3,700 people who live in houses built on stilts above the water. The village is known for its traditional way of life, which is based on fishing and agriculture. The best time to visit Kompong Phluk Village is during the wet season (June to October), when the water levels rise and the village becomes more accessible. However, the village can be visited year-round. Once you arrive in Kompong Phluk Village, you can explore the village on foot or by boat. You can visit the floating schools, the local markets, and the flooded forests. You can also go fishing or take a boat ride on the lake. Kompong Phluk Village is a unique and fascinating place to visit. It is a glimpse into a traditional way of life that is disappearing.

About Siem Reap

Siem Reap é a cidade ribeirinha junto a Angkor, o vasto complexo de templos khmer do Camboja, com mercados noturnos e um centro descontraído.

Angkor Wat, muitas vezes chamado o maior monumento religioso do mundo, ergue-se sobre o seu fosso numa silhueta de torres em forma de botão de lótus de cortar a respiração ao nascer do sol. Perto, a cidade amuralhada de Angkor Thom guarda o Bayon, com os seus mais de duzentos serenos rostos de pedra, o Terraço dos Elefantes e o Baphuon, enquanto Ta Prohm é agarrado pelas raízes de gigantescas árvores-de-algodão e figueiras-estranguladoras.
