Day 01

Phnom Chisor

Prasat Phnom Chisor (Phnom Chisor Temple), the Angkorean Temple built in the 11th century of laterite and bricks with carved sandstone lintels by the Khmer Empire king Suryavarman I with the original name Sri Suryaparvata (mean The Mountain of Sun). This Temple built on Chisor Mountain, a 133 m high and dedicated to the Hindu divinities Shiva and Vishnu. On the east edge of the mountain, at the back of the temple, there is a prime spot for view and pictures where you can see a vast plain of surrounding rice fields and countryside. From there, looking down to the east can see an avenue that forms a straight line connecting three main features including two outer gates (temples) of cruciform ground plan and a baray.

Sen Rovieng Temple

This temple is hundreds of years old, but it is still beautiful, not inferior to other temples, and also attracts a lot of tourists to visit. Not only that, all the tourists who come to visit this temple area will surely enjoy and relieve all worries with the beautiful nature there

Prasat Neang Khmau

The Neang Khmao Temple, Takeo is considered among the most popular tourist attractions in Takeo. Takeo is a beautiful province in Cambodia, specked with several places of interest that are natural or manmade. There are a number of grand temples in Takeo. Among these temples, the Neang Khmao Temple, Takeo is certainly worth a visit on your tour to Takeo.

Tonle Bati Pagoda

It is very beautiful monastery with richest decoration in this area that you must visit

Ta Prohm Temple

The outer wall of 1000 by 650 metres encloses an area of 650,000 square metres that at one time would have been the site of a substantial town, but that is now largely forested. There are entrance gopuras at each of the cardinal points, although access today is now only possible from the east and west. In the 13th century, face towers similar to those found at the Bayon were added to the gopuras. Some of the face towers have collapsed. At one time, moats could be found inside and outside the fourth enclosure. The three inner enclosures of the temple proper are galleried, while the corner towers of the first enclosure form a quincunx with the tower of the central sanctuary. This basic plan is complicated for the visitor by the circuitous access necessitated by the temple's partially collapsed state, as well as by the large number of other buildings dotting the site, some of which represent later additions.

Tonle Bati

Tonle Bati is is famous for an easy picnic area. Not only attract tourists with great atmosphere and natural sightseeing, there also home to an ancient temple nearby named Ta Phrom Temple.
