Siem Reap Trip Overview
CYCLING TOUR The cycling tour adventure will depart early morning from Prasat Kravan check point. Peddle through the jungle on your bike with your guide. Your fun adventure travels along the Prasat Banteay Kdei temple wall to Prasat Ta Promh. After you finish your visit you continue to the north gate of Prasat Ta Promh. If we are lucky, at the North Gate during the wet season there will be birds on the lake. Next you cycle to Prasat Ta Nei which is so quiet and peaceful you can hear the birds singing and cicadas calling. This temple has been abandoned and, like Ta Promh, is being covered by the jungle. Later on, you will cycle to Prasat Bayon or Angkor Thom, through the jungle, crossing the Victory Gate to East Gate. Then you can stop to take wonderful photos of the beautiful Buddha faces and three heads of elephants. After the photo stop you continue to the top wall of Prasat Chrung and the South Gate of Prasat Bayon.

Last stop will be at Prasat Bayon which is our main temple to visit for an hour or more, depending on your interest. Bayon was built late 12th/early 13th century by Jayavarnam VII. He dedicated it to Bodhisattva Avalokiteshara which relates to the Buddhist character of the temple. Bayon has 54 towers representing the 54 provinces before and during the Khmer empire. There are over 200 smiling faces carved on the 54 towers. Also look out for the fabulous bas reliefs showing the churning of the ocean of milk and the competition between demons and heaven gods. Include Prasat Baphoun as well if you are still interested. You can ask your guide to take you there and then you can climb up to up to see the beautiful view around this temple. Definitely you will need your camera to capture your holiday memories.
Duration: 7 hours
