Join a day trip towards Kulen Mountain and enjoy the amazing views during a 2-hour drive. You'll see the River of a Thousand Lingas and the statue of the Grand Reclining Buddha. You'll learn more about the historical and cultural significance of each landmark from your expert guide.
Arrive at the vast plateau of Phnom Kulen, overlooking the plain of Angkor, and discover the 28 ancient temples and rivers that crisscross the landscape and the waterfall as it tumbles down the rocks. Plunge into the pools and cool off from the midday sun before you enjoy lunch with a Khmer menu at a local restaurant.
Next, get a scenic drive to Beng Mealea Temple. Beng Mealea Temple is a perfect place for those who want to experience a vast jungle temple in its raw unrestored state. Set within a moat of over 0.5 square miles (1.5 square kilometers) the Hindu temple, with Buddhist motifs, is one of the most mysterious of all the temples of the Angkor style. Cloaked in thick vegetation, with huge trees sprouting from its ruins, Beng Mealea remains as it was when it was discovered in 1990. After the tour, you'll return to Siem Reap.
