In the morning, you will continue your temple visits, including Prasat Kravan, Pre Rup, the Mountain Temple, Eastern Mebon, Ta Som, Neak Pean, and Preah Khan, built by the king Jayavarman VII.
Return to the hotel for lunch.
In the afternoon, transfer to the archaeological site and continue the temples tour with Takeo, Thommanon, Chau Say Tevoda and Ta Prohm. One of the area's most beautiful temples, Ta Prohm has been left relatively untouched since it was discovered and retains much of its mystery. Its appeal lies in the fact that, unlike the other monuments of Angkor, it has been left to be swallowed by the jungle, and looks very much the same way most of the monuments of Angkor must have appeared when European explorers first stumbled upon them. This evening, enjoy dinner and a cultural show.
