Day 1 Visit = Koh Ker& Beng Mealea tours
1- Beng Mealea is one of the Khmer jewelling temples in jungle and largely un - restored.
- Beng Mealea temple, its name which means "lotus pond or one of the Khmer flowers name, Mealea" is a temple in the Angkor Wat style located 70 km Northeastern of the main group of temples at Angkor, on the ancient royal highway to Preah Khan Kompong Svay temple.
- Beng Mealea temple is largely UN - restored, with trees and thick brush thriving amidst its towers and courtyards and many of its stones lying in great heaps. For years it was difficult to reach, but a road recently was completely built to the temple complex of Koh Ker temple group passes Beng Mealea.
- 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 1113 – 1150, the early 12th century but some historians thought that maybe, built by Khmer King Jayavarman VI in 1080 – 1107 ?.
- Beng Mealea is smaller in size than Angkor Wat, the king's main monument, Beng Mealea, nonetheless ranks among the Khmer empire's larger temples: the gallery which forms the outer enclosure of the temple is 181 meters by 152 meters. It was the center of a town, surrounded by a moat 1025 meters by 875 meters large.
- The temple was built mostly of sandstone. Beng Mealea is only 7 km far from the angkorian sandstone quarries of Phnom Kulen Mountain, the sandstone blocks used for Angkor Wat temple and others in Angkor national park were transported along artificial water canals, and some by oxcarts, water buffalo carts and elephants and passed from here. Despite of lack of information from stone inscriptions, the quality of architecture and decorations has drawn the attention of some tourists to get there.

Beyond Angkor Wat, a Khmer kingdom emerges from the jungle. The Khmer Empire`s monuments are revealing their secret hideways in the jungle as land mines are being cleared and roads are being built to get to them. Koh Ker, Chok Gargya or also called Lingapura in the inscriptions, was the capital city of King Jayavarman IV in 921 , revolted against the nephew and moved the city from Yasodhapura - Angkor to Koh Ker ( 921 to 944 AD?? ?) . In this short time; some very spectacular buildings and immense sculptures were constructed. Left to the jungle for nearly a thousand years and mostly un-restored; this great archaeological site has been rarely visited until very recently.
This remote area has no towns and only a small village in cleared forest nearby. Koh Ker is relatively easy drive but involves an early start to get a good full days sightseeing Siem Reap, Angkor Wat and returning to Siem Reap city in the same day. The site is about 130 km Northeast of Siem Reap, Angkor Wat. The ancient Khmer city is in a distant jungle location with up to a hundred ruined temples including a huge stepped pyramid; the largest in the region. More ancient temples are being found in the jungle; so there is a true sense of discovery there.

Beyond Angkor Wat, a Khmer kingdom emerges from the jungle and UNESCO had just listed as world heritage site in 2008. The Preah Vihear temple in Northern Angkor Wat was built in 11th Century at the edge of a cliff in the Dangrek Mountain.
With Cambodia at peace, the government has launched a road-building campaign, bringing long-lost Khmer sites beyond Angkor within reach of travelers who dream of encounters with Cambodia's ancient wonders. The Khmer Empire, which ruled much of Southeast Asia from 800 to 1400, built monuments all over Cambodia. Preah Vihear temple is about 180 km from Siem Reap city or Angkor Wat. The world heritage site was just listed and recorded by UNESCO.
