  • Expedition to the South
    Expedition to the South Day 1: Arrival in Phnom Penh Commence your tour this morning with a journey south of Phnom Penh to Tonle Bati, a small lake with a beach and two impressive Angkorian laterite temples from the late 12th century, Ta Prohm and Yeay Peau. Explore the jungle-clad and atmospheric Ta Prohm, a temple built by King Jayavarman VII (who ruled from 1181 to 1201). Visit Phnom Chisor, a temple perched atop a hill and constructed of laterite and brick with carved lintels of sandstone. The inscriptions found here date back to the 11th century and the wooden doors to the sanctuary are decorated with intricate carvings. Continue to Angkor Borei, a 6th century monument built in laterite by King Rudravarman of Funan. His patron deity was Vishnu and many Hindu statues survive from this site. It is one of the few remaining sites with traces of the Kingdom of Funan (a kingdom influenced by India and thought to have spread as far as southern Burma and Indonesia). Next, head to a hill south of Angkor Borei, Phnom Da, which houses four artificial caves, built as shrines. At the completion of this visit you will be returned to your hotel for the evening at leisure. Day 2: Kep / Includes Breakfast Enjoy an early breakfast at your hotel this morning and depart for Kampot province. There are varieties of caves around Kampot, which is worth exploring and limestone mountains (phnom) dot the landscape between Kampot and Kep.

First, it is essential that Cambodia strengthens the conservation of the Temple; second, Cambodia must develop an appropriate management plan and submit it to the World Heritage Centre by 01 February 2008, because the review process would take up many months until July, to see whether or not our management plan is appropriate; and third, Cambodia and Thailand should develop a close cooperation in support of the inscription. If Cambodia fulfills these three conditions, then in 2008 the inscription will be automatic.

This dissertation argues that recent moves by the Cambodian government to transform this site into an "historical-tourist area" is overwhelmingly dominated by commercial priorities. However, the tourism project simultaneously effects an historical narrative that inherits but transforms the government's historiographic endeavors that immediately followed Democratic Kampuchea's 1979 ousting.
