From Siem Reap: Beng Mealea and Koh Ker Temple Tour｜Cambodia

Depart from your hotel in the morning and drive for one hour through scenic rural Cambodia to explore the largest temples outside the main Angkor complex, where tree roots envelop many of the temple walls and doorways.

First, visit a sprawling 12th-century Beng Mealea temple completely swallowed by vegetation and left in a fascinating state of collapse.

Next, continue your journey to a remote 10th-century former capital hidden deep in the rainforest, boasting an impressive seven-tiered sandstone pyramid (Prasat Thom) surrounded by overgrown structures. Climb to the top 40 meters high on a series of wooden ladders which are sturdy and bordered by handrails. Ascend to the summit and take in the panoramic jungle views and a refreshing cool breeze.

Next, wander to visit the beautiful Prasat Pram, Prasat Thnoeng, and Prasat Linga temples.

Finally, visit the Ancient Quarry, the place where sandstones were cut to build Angkor Wat. Return to your hotel after a long but fulfilling day.
