This meticulously crafted tour offers a deep dive into Cambodia's spiritual heritage, stunning natural beauty, and ancient mysteries, making it an ideal choice for travelers seeking an authentic Siem Reap experience that goes beyond the conventional temple routes.

The journey through the jungle, accompanied by the gentle sound of flowing water, is a truly meditative experience.
Beyond the carvings, this 3-day Cambodia adventure allows you to immerse yourself in the sacred waters of Kulen waterfall trek. Here, the cascading falls offer a picturesque setting for relaxation and, if you choose, a refreshing dip in the holy pools, believed to possess healing properties. You'll also visit the impressive Preah Ang Thom pagoda, home to a giant reclining Buddha carved into a massive sandstone boulder, a profound site for contemplation and spiritual reflection. Other highlights might include exploring the Srei Dumrey statue (an ancient stone elephant) or venturing into the mysterious Bat Cave Kulen, adding layers of discovery to your journey.

It is located 40 km east from the main group of temples at Angkor, Siem Reap, on the ancient royal highway to Preah Khan Kompong Svay. Beng Mealea was built as a Hindu temple, but some carvings depict Buddhist motifs. Its primary material is sandstone and it is largely unrestored, with trees and thick brush thriving amidst its towers and courtyards and many of its stones lying in great heaps. The history of the temple is unknown and it can be dated only by its architectural style, identical to Angkor Wat, so scholars assumed it was built during the reign of king Suryavarman II in the early 12th century. This site was added to the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List on September 1, 1992 in the Cultural category.Beng Mealea is largely unrestored and off the beaten path, with trees and brush thriving amidst its towers and courtyards.
