Angkor Wat Small Circuit Tour

Angkor Wat - Angkor Wat is a Hindu temple complex located in Cambodia. Spanning 162.6 hectares within the ancient Khmer capital of Angkor, it was initially built in 1150 CE as a Hindu temple dedicated to the god Vishnu.

Angkor Thom South Gate - The Angkor Thom South Gate is one of the five main, well-preserved entrances to the ancient city, renowned for its 12th-century architecture crafted by King Jayavarman VII. It serves as a popular and striking entry point, featuring a causeway adorned with statues of gods ((devas)) and demons ((asuras)) pulling a seven-headed (naga), a central tower with Bayon-style faces, and large elephant statues at the entrance. It’s a major tourist attraction, especially since it lies on the main route between Angkor Wat and the Bayon Temple.

Bayon Temple - The Bayon is a richly adorned Khmer temple associated with Buddhism at Angkor in Cambodia. Constructed in the late 12th or early 13th century as the state temple of King Jayavarman VII, the Bayon is situated at the center of Jayavarman’s capital, Angkor Thom.

Chau Say Tevoda - Chau Say Tevoda is a temple at Angkor, Cambodia. It is located just east of Angkor Thom, directly south of Thommanon across the Victory Way. Built in the mid-12th century, it is a Hindu temple from the Angkor Wat period. It is dedicated to Shiva and Vishnu, featuring unique types of female sculptures of devatas enshrined within.

Ta Nei Temple - Ta Nei is a late 12th-century stone temple in Angkor, Cambodia. Constructed during the reign of King Jayavarman VII, it is near the northwest corner of the East Baray, a large sacred reservoir. It was dedicated to the Buddha.

Ta Prohm - Ta Prohm is the modern name of a temple near Siem Reap, Cambodia, approximately one kilometer east of Angkor Thom and on the southern edge of the East Baray. It was built in the Bayon style largely in the late 12th century and early 13th century and was originally called Rajavihara.

Banteay Kdei - Banteay Kdei, also known as “Citadel of Monks’ cells,” is a Buddhist temple in Angkor, Cambodia. It is located southeast of Ta Prohm and east of Angkor Thom. Built in the mid-12th to early 13th centuries AD during the reign of Jayavarman VII (who was posthumously given the title “Maha paramasangata pada”), it is in the Bayon architectural style, similar in plan to Ta Prohm and Preah Khan, but less complex and smaller.

Banteay Srei & Kulen Mountain Waterfall & Beng Mealea

Banteay Srei - Banteay Srei is renowned for its pink sandstone construction and exceptionally intricate and delicate carvings, earning it the nickname “Jewel of Khmer Art” and the “Citadel of Women.” Unlike many other Angkor temples, it is smaller in scale and was not commissioned by a king but by a courtier.

Phnom Kulen Waterfall - Kulen Mountain is notable for being the birthplace of the Khmer Empire, where King Jayavarman II declared independence in 802 CE. Its sacred significance is highlighted by its large reclining Buddha, sacred waterfalls, and over a thousand ancient Hindu carvings, including lingas, etched into the riverbed. It is also an important site for biodiversity and a crucial water source for the Siem Reap region.

Boeng Mealea - In Beng Mealea, visitors can explore a sprawling, largely unrestored temple complex famously known as a “jungle temple” due to massive tree roots intertwining with its sandstone structures. Visitors can admire the impressive scale of the ruins, including a central sanctuary, three surrounding galleries, and a long causeway with intricate carvings like naga (serpent) balustrades. The site is characterized by a surreal landscape of collapsed walls and stones piled in heaps, often compared to a movie set, with a wooden walkway providing guided access.

Kulen Mountain is renowned as the birthplace of the Khmer Empire, where King Jayavarman II proclaimed independence in 802 CE. Its sacred importance is underscored by a large reclining Buddha, sacred waterfalls, and over a thousand ancient Hindu carvings, including lingas, etched into the riverbed. It is also a vital site for biodiversity and serves as a crucial water source for the Siem Reap region.

Banteay Srei is distinguished by its intricate pink sandstone carvings, its relatively small, miniature scale, and its non-royal commission by a Brahman scholar. Known as the “Citadel of Women,” its elaborate decorations are considered among the finest examples of Khmer art, leading some to believe they were carved by women.
