DETAILED ITINERARY |
|
The sacred Phnom Kulen mountain is widely regarded as a birthplace of the ancient Khmer empire. This hilltop site has a largest reclining Buddha dedicated to the independence proclamation of King Jayavarma II in 802 A.D. The Phnom Kulen has only returned to the government hands after the fall of the Khmer Rouge and is currently fairly inaccessible because of the poor road conditions especially in the rainy season. Today we depart hotel at 8h30 and drive on a rugged roads toward the holy mountain of Phnom Kulen. On arrival we visit Ligar carving, a legacy of the God-kings who ruled Cambodia in the ninth century, sleeping Buddha, and Phnom Kulen waterfall. The trip ends after arrival in Siem Reap Town. (L) |
