Travel Guide
The province of Preah Vihear in the north of Cambodia is largely determined by two main attractions: the historically and artistically very valuable temple complex Prasat Preah Vihear and the dispute over this region, on which this temple stands.
Prasat Preah Vihear temple complex towers on the hill at 700 meters. It was built in the 10th to the 12th century, when the early Khmer people were still Hindu. Several relevant temples are to be found here, which have so far attracted a number of tourists.
Koh Ker- the short-lasting old capital of the Khmer Empire is a 40-meter-high pyramid divided into seven levels. In addition, Preah Khan approximately 25 square kilometers and the tourism have not been largely exploited. Many small ruins in the jungle are hardly ever visited and wait to be discovered. Moreover, the landscape in this province is absolutely attractive and inviting thanks to the new road network to enjoyable trips off the beaten tourist routes.
