Visit Beng Mealea temple because it is a very interesting temple that is intersted by many tourists. Beng Mealea temple was built in the 12 cetury, the layout and style of Beng Mealea is very similar to Angkor Wat. Its current state, however, is dominated by jungle. Trees have grown out of the towers and vines entangle columns. Lintels and others building blocks lay around in a tumble and rquire visitors to climd up and down as they approach the completely collapsed central towers. This is how the early expeditions must have found the temples of Angkor....
- Beng Melea
* Boat cruise on the Kompong Khleang Floating Village at Tonle Sap Lake where you will meet the local life at the rural. Kampong Khleang is located on the northern lake-edge about 35 km east of Siem Reap town, more remote and less touristed than Kampong Phluk. Visitors to Kampong Khleang during the dry season are universally awestruck by the forest of stilted houses rising up to 10 meters in the air. In the wet season the waters rise to within one or two meters of the buildings. Like Kampong Phluk, Kampong Khleang is a permanent community within the floodplain of the Lake, with an economy based in fishing and surrounded by flooded forest. But Kampong Khleang is significantly larger with near 10 times the population of Kampong Phluk, making it the largest community on the Lake.
End of services ! Good luck !
