Da sapere su questa attività

Visit the beautiful temple of Preah Vihear, a famous UNESCO World Heritage site, near the Thai border in Cambodia. You will depart in the morning from Siem Reap and drive to Preah Vihear by private airconditioned car with English speaking driver.

When we arrive at Preah Vihear we need to change into a 4 wheel drive to drive up the temple. This takes around 15 minutes. Preah Vihear was built during Angkorian times and is a Hindu temple. From the temple you have a spectacular view of the surroundings.

The temple of Preah Vihear was declared an UNESCO World Heritage site in 2008. For a long time there has been a dispute about whether the temple belongs to Thailand or Cambodia, but in 1962 the International court ruled that it is part of Cambodia. In 2008 the dispute revived, but the general agreement is still that Preah Vihear belongs to Cambodia.

After visiting the very interesting site of Preah Vihear we drive to Koh Ker, the pyramid temple. It is a temple unlike any other temple you will see in Cambodia. Koh Ker used to be the capital of the Khmer empire and is an importsant historic site. You will visit the pyramid temple as well as a few smaller temples in the area.

During the tour you are treated to a nice local lunch in a local restaurant.

Afterwards we drive back to Siem Reap.

Note: Please do not forget bring your passport because it will be checked at Preah Vihear.
