This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Beng Mealea, 40 km east of Angkor Wat Cambodia

The Beng Mealea, or “Lotus Pond” Temple, from the early 11th Century built by Suryavarman II as a Hindu Temple and is hidden in a maze of jungle. Architecturally, Beng Mealea is noted for its innovative, for its time, construction of hallways, it was a very large temple with wide galleries foreshadowing Angkor Wat. For a long time, it was left aside by nearby villagers until it was (re)discovered by local explorers and remains still one of the least-visited temple ruins of Angkor. The sprawling jungle temple covering over one square kilometer is largely overrun by vegetation so there is plenty to see, explore and walk around.

Duration: 3 hours

Stop At: Banteay Srei, Siem Reap Cambodia

You will visit Banteay Srei. Named ‘The Citadel of Women’ this is a tiny, yet very enchanting temple, which is one of the jewels in this remarkable city. Built of red sandstone in the tenth century and dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva, the carved male and female figures in the niches are exquisitely executed in both style and proportion. This is the most Indian of all the temples in Angkor and in the words of H.W. Ponder, is ‘a fairy palace in the heart of an immense and mysterious forest’. A proper dress code applies for visitors to this temple and your guide for the day will gladly explain the requirements to enter the holy sanctum of Banteay Srei.

Duration: 2 hours 30 minutes
