After breakfast, we visit Small Circuit including:
• Ta Prohm temple, a wonderful combination of human genius and natural beauty;
• Prasat Kravan, originally constructed by noblemen rather than a king;
• Banteay Kdei built in sandstone, which has deteriorated quite badly;
• Srah Srang, a royal pool which the King washed with his many concubines each day;
• Takeo temple, never completed so has no elaborate decoration like its contemporaries;
• Thommanon, a small attractive temple in very good condition, built at the same time as Angkor Wat;
• Chau Say Tevoda built during the second quarter of the 12th century opposite of Thommanon.
In the afternoon, visit the highlights of the Grand Circuit including:
• Preah Khan, famous for its immensely long cruciform corridors and delicate carvings;
• Neak Pean, a delicate highlight of Khmer art, the perfect representation of the heavens on earth;
• Ta Som, a small classic Bayon style monastic complex consisting of a relatively flat enclosure;
• East Mebon, built in the 10th Century by Rajendravarman.
Last visit Pre Rup built in the 10th Century by Rajendravarman and view lovely sunset there.
