Angkor Wat est le plus grand monument religieux du monde. Il a été construit au début du 12ème siècle. En tant que temple le mieux conservé du site, il est le seul à être resté un centre religieux important depuis sa fondation. Nous entrerons dans le grand temple par le côté oriental peu visité. Nous continuons notre voyage à pied et rampons à travers un chemin de jungle jusqu'à l'ancienne bibliothèque nord. Écoutez les explications de votre guide expert, puis passez du temps à vous aventurer dans les chambres centrales du temple, où votre guide local vous révélera l'histoire, les mythes et les histoires représentés sur les bas-reliefs en pierre (la plus longue étendue de sculptures en bas-relief le monde) alors vous vous aventurerez profondément dans les chambres centrales de ce vraiment grand temple. Votre guide expérimenté veillera à ce que votre visite à Angkor Wat vous laisse une riche compréhension de l'histoire et du but du grand temple, ainsi que de la puissante civilisation angkorienne.
La porte sud est l'une des cinq portes d'Angkor Thom (l'ancienne capitale de l'empire khmer). La porte flanquée d'une rangée de 54 personnages en pierre de chaque côté était l'entrée de la ville fortifiée d'Angkor Thom. À l'apogée de sa grandeur, Angkor Thom avait une population de plus d'un million d'habitants et était plus grande que la ville de Londres. C'est l'un des sites touristiques les plus populaires de la région d'Angkor Wat.
Le Bayon est un temple khmer richement décoré à Angkor au Cambodge. Construit au 13ème siècle comme temple d'État du roi Jayavarman VII, le Bayon se dresse au centre de la capitale de Jayavarman. Le trait le plus distinctif du Bayon est la multitude de visages de pierre sereins et souriants sur les nombreuses tours qui dépassent de la terrasse supérieure et se regroupent autour de son sommet central. Vous verrez ses tours centrales magnifiquement conçues, couvertes de plus de 200 visages énormes. Le temple a deux ensembles de bas-reliefs, qui présentent une combinaison de scènes mythologiques, historiques et mondaines. Le mur extérieur de la galerie extérieure présente une série de bas-reliefs représentant des événements historiques et des scènes de la vie quotidienne des Khmers angkoriens. Les bas-reliefs de la galerie intérieure représentent des événements mythologiques.
Baphuon est situé à Angkor Thom, au nord-ouest du Bayon. Construit au milieu du XIe siècle, c'est une montagne de temple à trois niveaux construite comme temple d'État. Le temple jouxte l'enceinte sud du Palais Royal et mesure 120 mètres est-ouest sur 100 mètres nord-sud à sa base et s'élève à 34 mètres de haut sans sa tour, ce qui l'aurait fait environ 50 mètres de haut. Son apparence a apparemment impressionné l'envoyé de Temür Khan à la fin du XIIIe siècle, Chou Ta-kuan, lors de sa visite de 1296 à 1297, qui a déclaré que Bayon était la tour d'or et que Baphuon était `` la tour de bronze ... un spectacle vraiment étonnant, avec plus de dix chambres à sa base.
Gemme cachée: Votre guide vous emmènera dans un endroit que la plupart des touristes n'ont jamais vu. Le voyage est la seule chose que vous achetez qui vous rend plus riche.
Phimeanakas (temple céleste) ou Vimeanakas construit à la fin du 10ème siècle, sous le règne de Rajendravarman (de 941-968), puis complété par Suryavarman I sous la forme des pyramides à trois niveaux en tant que temple hindou. Au sommet de la pyramide il y avait une tour, tandis que sur le bord de la plate-forme supérieure il y a des galeries. Phimeanakas est situé à l'intérieur de l'enceinte fortifiée du palais royal d'Angkor Thom.
La célèbre terrasse du roi lépreux. Certains pensent que la structure en forme de U a été utilisée comme site de crémation royale. Il a été construit au 13ème siècle sous le roi Jayavarman VII, bien que son nom moderne dérive d'une sculpture du 15ème siècle découverte sur le site. La statue représente le dieu hindou Yama, le dieu de la mort.
La terrasse des éléphants, longue de 350 m, servait de stand de révision géant pour les cérémonies publiques et servait de base au grand public du roi. Certains résidents khmers locaux l'appellent «l'ancien stade khmer». Il a été construit au 13ème siècle sous le roi Jayavarman VII.
Arrêt secret : Un lieu majestueux qui donne le ton de l’aventure de la journée. N'écoutez pas ce qu'ils disent, allez voir. Tous les voyages ont des destinations secrètes que les voyageurs ignorent.
Le Ta Prohm (temple du voleur de tombes), enveloppé dans la jungle, est l'un des temples les plus atmosphériques d'Angkor. Ta Prohm a été construit au 13ème siècle. Contrairement à la plupart des temples angkoriens, Ta Prohm est à peu près dans le même état dans lequel il a été trouvé, la combinaison photogénique et atmosphérique d'arbres poussant hors des ruines et de la jungle environnante en a fait l'un des temples les plus populaires d'Angkor auprès des visiteurs. L'UNESCO a inscrit Ta Prohm sur la Liste du patrimoine mondial en 1992. Aujourd'hui, c'est l'un des complexes les plus visités de la région d'Angkor au Cambodge. Ta Prohm était un temple religieux situé au centre de l'ancienne université khmère aux XIIe et XIIIe siècles.

We thoroughly enjoyed this tour and if you, like us, have never been to Angkor Wat and the other nearby temples complexes, would highly recommend it. The tour takes you through several of the main attractions, Bayon, Bauphon, Ta Prohm, and of course, Angkor Wat, etc., and our guide, Mr. Sim, was very well versed in the history of each of them. He effectively summarized the "big picture" at each stop and pointed out fine details that we would never have noticed on our own. Mr. Sim was friendly, very professional, and clearly enthusiastic about sharing the history of these architectural and cultural wonders. FYI, there's no lunch stop on the tour, which was fine with us, but you may wish to bring snacks. Bottled water was provided. Be prepared for lots of walking and climbing up and down steps. But we're both in our 60s and we did fine.
Hi Douglas, thank you for sharing your experience on our Angkor Wat Temple Tour! We're particularly happy to hear you enjoyed your tour experience with our guide Sim. We will pass this on to him. We're continuously working to make our tours even better, and feedback like yours helps us achieve this. We hope to welcome you back on another adventure soon!" From Journey2 Teams
Mr. Sim has been one of the best tour guides in our month long tour through South East Asia. He was kind, polite, very knowledgeable and well prepared. He met us at our hotel lobby where he shared with us a route map and information about the different temples we would visit. I'm glad that we booked this private tour, not only to gain facts and interesting stories about what we were seeing; but, also appreciated someone guiding us through the maze like parts of some of the temples. Sim also helped us with photos, taking some of them, and also showing us unique spots to take our photos from. We won't forget the cool, nice smelling hand towels and water provided after every stop to help us freshen up and cool down from the hot weather - the little details that mean so much. We'd been looking forward to this tour of Angkor Wat and surrounding temples; and, Journey 2 Angkor, Mr. Sim and their driver provided an amazing tour making our time in Siem Reap unforgettable.

He even gave us a list of places not to be missed, he was absolutely brilliant.

What an absolutely fabulous day! I booked thru Viators and our certified guide Sim and his tuk-tuk driver were right on time. Sim went over our schedule and said we could add to it should we like since it was our day! All together we visited 8 temples, each quite unique. The history of this great civilization was shared with us at each. We felt it would be near impossible to do this without a guide and the tuk tuk took us between temples. Our driver also had cold water after each of our 30-60 minutes stops and even ice cold washcloths! Though it was only in the 80’s we are from Washington State and the heat really hits me. Sim asked us a couple of times if we’d like to take less of a climb and I was grateful. After stopping for lunch and seeing our last temple we returned to our hotel and Sim sent us a list of which temples we visited. He also gave us a local map and suggestions of other things to see on our stay. Also shopping and dining information! All in all a terrific day!

An excellent day, seeing multiple temples and religious architecture. Our guide Bunna took us to Angkor Wat through an entrance that was much less known to the public and therefore much less crowded and more peaceful. His explanations of the details of the temples were thorough and incredibly interesting! The jungle temple and Elephant Terrace were also incredible, and Bunna knew exactly where the most interesting parts were. Having a driver for the day makes such a difference as there is actually quite a distance between temples. In addition, we had a fantastic traditional Khmer lunch at a lovely restaurant.
Hi Tully, It was very nice to meet you and your colleague in Siem Reap. Thank you for visiting Cambodia. We're glad to hear that you enjoy your tour with Bunna.

Bunna took to all the best photo spots for the sites, including going backward through some sites to make sure the sun was in the right place for the shots. He offered us complimentary water and wet towels when we travelled using the Tuk tuk. He was very well versed in historical knowledge and could answer any questions we posed to him throughout the day. We felt very safe on our trip and we thoroughly enjoyed our time seeing the temples in Cambodia, would definitely recommend getting him as your guide if you’re planning on going. 👍

Our guide Bunna was wonderful. He was on time, very informative and knowledgeable having been a professional guide for many years and had impeccable English making everything much easier. He was flexible, would often help take our picture and would spend more time where we liked and even snuck an extra spot in we really wanted to see. Our Tuk Tuk was very comfortable and he and the driver always kept us hydrated and cool. I would thoroughly recommend Bunna and his driver for a great day seeing all around Siam Reap.

Amazing way to experience Angkor Wat temples. I would give this tour and tour guide Sim 10 stars if that was possible. Tuk tuk provides you with agility to move in easy way and this is a luxury tuk tuk (cold towels, bottled water, super clean). Professional driver, and very well educated tour guide, with high social intelligence. Highly recommended and best value for money.
