In this place, now known as Rolous, we can admire temples built with more rudimentary and primitive techniques compared to Angkor, but equally full of charm. In the ninth century, sandstone was not used in construction, and thus the Preah Ko temple and Lolei towers were built entirely of brick. We’ll visit the main attractions of the Rolous group: the mammoth Bakong, a "mountain temple" which is similar to a pyramid with five level stands and a wide canal that surrounds the center.
In the afternoon, we’ll begin to the visit of Angkor Wat, the most famous and largest religious complex in the world. Once finished, we’ll stay overnight at our Siem Reap hotel.
