Description
Explore Cambodia's history and a comprehensive range of historical landmark and surroundings of Siem Reap, with avoiding the crowds or a big tour group. On this day private tour, you will come across temples, ruins and other ancient structures with us to lead the way. Here the stories behind Four sites of the UNESCO World Heritage listed as:
1-Angkor Archeological Park in 1992 which was included Beng Mealea in Siem Reap Province.
2-Preah Vihear Temple in 2008, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site on July 7th, 2008. Subject to controversial ownership issues over time this temple officially belongs to Cambodia. Its location is 150km north of Siem Reap and it will take approximately 3 hours to get there. You will drive through picturesque countryside which becomes less and less populated the further north you go. This temple is a unique architectural complex of series of sanctuaries linked by a system of pavements and staircases on 800 meter long axis.
3-The archaeological site of Koh Ker, UNESCO on September 17, 2023, is a sacred urban ensemble of numerous temples and sanctuaries including sculptures, inscriptions, wall paintings, and archaeological remains. Constructed over a twenty-three-year period, it was one of two rival Khmer Empire capitals – the other being Angkor – and was the sole capital from 928 to 944 CE. Established by King Jayavarman IV, his sacred city was believed to be laid out on the basis of ancient Indian religious concepts of the universe. The new city demonstrated unconventional city planning, artistic expression and construction technology, especially the use of very large monolithic stone blocks.

Itinerary
You will be picked up at your hotel and transferred to Beng Mea lea, built as a Hindu temple, but there are some carvings depicting Buddhist motifs. Its primary material is sandstone and it is largely undestroyed, with trees and thick brush thriving amidst its towers and courtyards and many of its stones lying in great heaps. Then, head to Koh Ke temple, a remote archaeological site in northern Cambodia about 120 kilometres away from Siem Reap and the ancient site of Angkor. It is a very jungle filled region that is sparsely populated. More than 180 sanctuaries were found in a protected area of 81 square kilometers (31 sq mi). Only about two dozen monuments can be visited by tourists because most of the sanctuaries are hidden in the forest.
After that, we go to Preh Vihear temple, an ancient Hindu temple built during the reign of the Khmer Empire, that is situated atop a 525-metre cliff in the Dângrêk Mountains, in the Preah Vihear province, Cambodia. In 1962, following a lengthy dispute between Thailand and Cambodia over ownership, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague ruled that the temple is in Cambodia. Return to Siem Reap and drop off at hotel.
