Day 2: Angkor sunrise, temples, and village expand_more

Arguably the largest religious building in the world, Angkor has a volume of stone equivalent to the Cheops pyramid in Egypt.
Head back to the hotel for breakfast, then return to the Angkor temples to see temples that were not covered during the previous day's tour.
Pause for lunch at a local restaurant, before a 45-minute trip beyond the Angkor complex to see Banteay Srei and Banteay Samre, a pair of exquisite temples that are far less crowded than the main Angkor sites.
Find fine carvings in pink sandstone, and what some consider to be the most beautiful and best-preserved work in Cambodia.
Stop at a village to learn about rice farming, see sugar palms, and try a cool coconut drink (depending on the season, best period is between October and April).
Spend rest of the day in Siem Reap at leisure before going for dinner.
