Delve into the culture and heritages with Angkor Wat exploring day! We first visit Angkor Wat, one of the modern wonders of the world.

Stroll through the intricately carved hallways that show hundreds of fine carvings and discover small shrines still in use today by the local people. If time permits, continue to visit other temples in the area.
Following, we drive a bit out of town to visit Banteay Srei. This red sandstone temple is one of Angkor’s most significant structures as its walls are decorated with elaborate carvings which have been preserved remarkably well. They provide an excellent insight into the Angkor civilization and its beliefs. It was built in the 10th century and was dedicated to the Hindu god – Shiva.

The temple mountain is a combination of brick, laterite, and sandstone construction that reflects the common belief among Cambodians that funerals were conducted at the temple, with the ashes of the body being ritually rotated in different directions as the service progressed.
