Appreciated that we didn't have to be ready for a sparrows fart start today! Narith picked us up at 8.30 for our day exploring the temples surrounding Angkor Wat. We had a great map from reception and Kim's research had identified the key highlights for us to visit. The photos of the day will no doubt speak for themselves.
We started off at Angkor Thom.
Angkor Thom
Detailed wall carvings found all around the temples.
Entrance to the Royal Palace
Ta Prohm where the trees have created havoc but are amazing!
The Sras Srang lake was our last stop before heading back, fairly templed out and ready for a swim. In our pool ....... not the lake, though it was very tempting!!!
Had a lovely couple of hours chilling and re-hydrating then made our way to the Temple Bar Balcony restaurant for dinner and to watch the Apsara Dancers, traditional Cambodian dancers who put in a free show from 7.30-9.30 every night.
A lovely finish to our stay in Cambodia, tomorrow we head towards the Cambodia/Thailand border.
