The Unmissable Realm of Angkor Thom
The Unmissable Realm of Angkor Thom
Private Tour (AM)
For KrisFlyer members only
Highlights
One often needs to take a break: Angkor’s immense size is mind-blowing, and with a cornucopia of temples, pagodas and remnants of what once was one of the largest cities in the world (according to the records, more than one million people lived in the great Angkor Kingdom at one time), it is bound to overload you with impressions.
Our half-day explorations of the famous sights from the perfect base to head out into Angkor before moving on to another highlight, surrounding Siem Reap. The Angkor Thom region is worth its own half-day. With landmarks such as the 200-headed Bayon temple and the opulence that once adorned the Elephant Terrace, this fits perfectly into a morning or an afternoon venture.
Itinerary
Angkor Thom South Gate
45 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedYour English speaking guide and professional driver will pick you up from your hotel lobby for this 4-hour venture into UNESCO-protected territory. The trip starts with entering the magnificence of Angkor via the Southern Gate of Angkor Thom, one of the main entrances in the life of the Jayavarman Kings and often visualized on travel magazines with a Cambodia spread.Bayon Temple
45 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedNothing beats seeing the Bayon (our first stop of the day) for the first time. Erected by Jayavarman VII at the end of the XII century, The Bayon (literally “Great City”) is located in the geographical heart of Angkor Thom. The fifty four-tower-counting temple is a quite remarkable sight. Initially, the temple seems to be a shapeless mass of grey and brown stone but as one approaches one realizes that each of the towers is carved manually. There are over two hundred huge enigmatic faces of Avalokitesharva on 54 towers bearing down on you wherever you turn.Terrace of the Elephants
30 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedA short walk from the Bayon brings you to the Terrace of the Elephants and the Terrace of the Leper King, a monumental plateau where once King Jayavarman VII resided.Terrace of the Leper King
