Remote temples tour 1Day - 1Day

Remote temples tour 1Day - Siem Reap

We will take you at your hotel and drive 37 km northeast of Siem Reap to explore the temple tour of Banteay Srei, founded in 967. While many of Angkor's temples are impressive because of their sheer size, Banteay Srei stands out by the quality of its craftsmanship. You will admire the beautiful apsara carvings made of pink sandstone contrasting with the main walls in laterite. Then, we will drive to Phnom Kbal Spean. After a 30 mins walk in the forest, we will arrive at Sahasralina, the River of a Thousand Lingas. The remarkable 11th-century riverbed rock carvings display a gallery of gods and celestial beings including Vishnu reclining on the serpent Anata, Shiva, Brahma, Lakshmi, Rama and Hanuman. We will have lunch at Borey Sovann, set at the base of jungled mountains opposite the entrance to Kbal Spean.

We will take you at your hotel and drive 37 km northeast of Siem Reap to explore the temple tour of Banteay Srei, founded in 967. While many of Angkor's temples are impressive because of their sheer size, Banteay Srei stands out by the quality of its craftsmanship. You will admire the beautiful apsara carvings made of pink sandstone contrasting with the main walls in laterite. Then, we will drive to Phnom Kbal Spean. After a 30 mins walk in the forest, we will arrive at Sahasralina, the River of a Thousand Lingas. The remarkable 11th-century riverbed rock carvings display a gallery of gods and celestial beings including Vishnu reclining on the serpent Anata, Shiva, Brahma, Lakshmi, Rama and Hanuman. We will have lunch at Borey Sovann, set at the base of jungled mountains opposite the entrance to Kbal Spean.
 
After lunch, we will visit Phnom Bok, one of three monuments built by Yasovarman on the hills dominating the plain of Angkor. A 20-30 min climb will reveal a limitless horizon, broken only to the north by the view of Phnom Kulen. Then a nice countryside road will take us to Chau Srei Vibol, a temple in ruin in a quiet location, and finally, we will visit Banteay Samre. It is one of the most complete complex at Angkor, restored with the method of the anastylosis. Built under the reign of Suryavarman II during the mid 12th century, its unique feature is the interior moat covered with a laterite paving. Not very touristic, you should appreciate its peaceful atmosphere. Then we will drive you back to your hotel.
