Itinerary

Upon arrival at Siem Reap airport, welcomed by tour guide in Siem Reap and transfer to check in hotel. Free time at leisure and overnight in Siem Reap.

Breakfast at hotel, explore South Gate of Angkor Thom known as Big Angkor, 3km2 walled and moated royal city and was the last capital of the Angkorian Empire. The famous Bayon Temple was an architectural muddle, in part because it was constructed in a somewhat piecemeal fashion for over a century. Terrace of the Elephants is an impressive, two and a half meter tall, 300 meter long terrace wall adorned with carved elephants and gradual that spans the heart of Angkor Thom in front of Baphuon - huge temple mountain in the heart of Angkor Thom, Royal Palace Area and Phimeanakas - impressive rite and sandstone pyramid. Terrace of the Leper King is at the north end of the Terrace of the Elephants, a double terrace wall with deeply carved nag as, demons and other mythological beings.
Afternoon visit Angkor Wat temple, founded by Suryavarman II who reigned Cambodia from 1113 to 1152 and built the five towers in the 12th century to dedicate to the Hindu God Vishnu. The plan of the pyramidal conception of the temple combined with spaces, alleys, ditches is an ancient masterpiece of architectural design and construction. Overnight in Siem Reap

After breakfast, we visit Small Circuit including: Ta Prohm temple, a wonderful combination of human genius and natural beauty; Prasat Kravan was originally constructed by noblemen rather than a king; Banteay Kdei was built in sandstone, which has deteriorated quite badly; Srah Srang, a royal pool which was the King's bathing pond; Takeo commissioned by King Suryavarman I in the 10th Century; 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 built by Jayawarman VII and is famous for its immensely long cruciform corridors and delicate carvings; Neak Pean is a delicate highlight of Khmer art and the perfect representation of the heavens on earth; Ta Som was a small classic Bayon style monastic complex consisting of a relatively flat enclosure; East Mebon was built in the 10th Century by Rajendravarman.
