- Head to Phnom Tamao Wildlife Rescue Centre (PTWRC), a wildlife centre located roughly 25 miles (40 km) by road south of Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The centre was established in 1995, and with an area of over 6,000 acres of protected regenerating forest, this is the largest zoo in Cambodia. Since 2001, PTWRC has been run by the government institution of the Cambodian Forestry Administration in partnership with an environmental non-profit organization called Wildlife Alliance. Wildlife Alliance animal husbandry specialists, veterinarians, and caretakers assist in the feeding and care of animals and operations.
- Have lunch at the local restaurants.
- Continue to Phnom Chisor Temple with the Cambodian tour guide. There is an ancient Khmer temple located on top of the hill. The temple was built in the 11th century from laterite and bricks with carved sandstone lintels by the Khmer Empire King Suryavarman I, who practised Brahmanism. It was dedicated to the Hindu divinities Shiva and Vishnu. The original name of the temple was Sri Suryaparvata, "The mountain of Surya".
