One-Day Visit: Small Circuit Visit Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom & Ta Prohm ( the Tomb Raider Movie temple) This morning at 8:30AM you will be picked up we journey to the mother of all temples Angkor Wat.
Angkor Wat: One of the seventh wonder of the world and the largest religous building in the world, representing Cambodia it's self.
Angkor Thom, the last capital, was indeed a ''Great City'' as its name implies, and it served as the religious and administrative centre of the vast and powerful Khmer Empire. It was grander than any city in Europe at the time and must have supported a considerable population which may have been as high as one million. Bayon: built in the end of 12 century in dedication to Buddha, is charming with the decoration of smiling faces, and the most favourite temple among tourists. Visit Baphuon built in the middle of 11th century dedicated to Shiva. According to Zhou Daguan, Baphuon was the towers of bronze while Bayon the towers of gold. Then continue to the ancient royal palace where the kings of Angkor lived. Like much of Angkor Thom, the residences of the king, and those who worked in the palace, were built of wood and have disintegrated, leaving no traces. See Phimeanakas (aerial palace), located in inside the Royal Palace compound, was the temple where the king worshipped. It must originally have been crowned with golden pinnacles, as Zhou Daguan described it as the '' Tower of Gold''. Walk through the compound to the Tarrace of the elephants: built in the end 12th century by Jayavarman VI, located directly in front of the Royal Palace enclosure wall. Before we move on to the tomb raider temple Ta Prohm we have lunch breakfast first. Ta Prohm: built by Jayavarman VI, a Buddhist monastery dedicated to his mother shrouded in the jungle, the temple of Ta Prohm is ethereal in aspect and conjures up a romantic aura. Trunks of trees twist amongst stone pillars. Fig, banyan and kapok trees spread their gigantic roots over, under and in between the stones, probing walls and terraces apart, as their branches and leaves intertwine to form a roof above the structures. Visit Banteay Kdei: built by king Jayavarman VII was used as Buddhist monastic complex and was undoubtedly an important temple. Banteay Kdei is worth a visit as has some good carving and is less crowded than other monuments of the same period. The temple is similar in art and architecture to Ta Prohm, but it is smaller and less complex. We finish and head back to the hotel aroughly at 3PM. End of program Price for one day visit:
