4 Days / 3 Nights Siem Reap Angkor Wat & Kulen Mountain 4 Days / 3 Nights Siem Reap Angkor Wat & Kulen Mountain Product Code : TREP4D(4ER-LK)-310320 Package include : * 03 night’s accommodation * Full board meals – 03 breakfasts, 03 lunches & 03 dinner * Return airport-hotel-airport transfer * Half-day Siem Reap City Tour * Full-day Angkor Heritage Tour * Full-day Phnom Kulen National Park Tour * English-speaking guide Sample itinerary : Day 01 _______ / SIEM REAP (Lunch, Dinner) Upon your arrival in Siem Reap International Airport, you will be met by our local representative and thereafter, proceed to visit Artisan D'Angkor, a handicraft centre specializing in teaching traditional crafts to impoverished youngster. Here, you will find everything from elegant stone and wood statues to household furniture. Next, continue on to visit War Memorial Monument which is dedicated to those who sacrificed their lives in the civil war; and followed by a visit to the beautifully decorated shrine of Preah Ang Chek and Preah Ang Chorm which is located just across from the Independence Gardens and The Royal Palace. These sister deities, believed to have been Angkorian Princesses, were originally housed at the Preah Poan gallery at Angkor Wat but were repeatedly moved to keep their whereabouts secret from invaders as well as treasure hunters until they were finally enshrined in their current location in 1990. After dinner, enjoy a little shopping at the night market or head over to Pub Street which is packed with restaurants and bars for a taste of nightlife in Siem Reap. Day 02 SIEM REAP (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner) After breakfast, begin the day with a visit to The South Gate of Angkor Thom, the last capital of the Khmer Empire. Explore the temples inside the walls of the “Great City” such as Bayon, Phimeanakas, Baphoun, Terrace of the Elephants as well as the Terrace of the Leper King; followed by a small circuit tour of Thommanon, Chau Say Tevoda, Ta Keo and Ta Prohm, a temple with jungle-like atmosphere with a combination of giant trees and extensive roots growing out of the ruins. After lunch, explore the grounds of Angkor Wat, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the “Seven Wonders of the World”. Constructed during the first half of the 12th century and encompassing an area of about 400 acres, this awe-inspiring temple is the largest and the best-preserved monument within the ancient city that was the epicentre of the Khmer empire that once ruled most of Southeast Asia. Later in the evening, take a short hike up to the top of Bakheng Hill for a fabulous view of sunset over Angkor Wat and its surrounding rice fields as well as forested countryside; before relaxing and unwinding while enjoying a dinner with Khmer Traditional Show. Day 03 SIEM REAP (Breakfast, Picnic Lunch, Dinner) After breakfast, journey approximately 40 kilometres Northeast of Siem Reap to Phnom Kulen National Park. Literally the “Mountain of Lychees”, it is believed to be the birthplace of the ancient Khmer Empire and is considered to be the most sacred mountain in Cambodia. Wind through some spectacular tropical jungle scenery to emerge on the plateau; visit the remains of the three-tiered pyramid temple Prasat Rong Chen that marks the site where the Khmer Empire was founded in AD 802; and thereafter, continue on to the famous “River of a Thousand Lingas”. Believed to date back to the 11th century, the riverbed has been elaborately etched with several hundreds of Lingas as well as Yonis while depictions of Hindu deities dotted the area along the river. Take a dip and cool off at one of the waterfalls nearby, enjoy a picnic lunch before returning to the city for a little shopping at a local market. Evening is free at leisure for you to explore the city.

  • Ecosystems and Livelihoods SFS 3810
    Ecosystems and Livelihoods SFS 3810 Syllabus The School for Field Studies (SFS) Siem Reap, Cambodia This syllabus may develop or change over time based on local conditions, learning opportunities, and faculty expertise. Course content may vary from semester to semester. www.fieldstudies.org © 2019 The School for Field Studies Fa19 COURSE CONTENT SUBJECT TO CHANGE Please note that this is a copy of a recent syllabus. A final syllabus will be provided to students on the first day of academic programming. SFS programs are different from other travel or study abroad programs. Each iteration of a program is unique and often cannot be implemented exactly as planned for a variety of reasons. There are factors which, although monitored closely, are beyond our control. For example: • Changes in access to or expiration or change in terms of permits to the highly regulated and sensitive environments in which we work; • Changes in social/political conditions or tenuous weather situations/natural disasters may require changes to sites or plans, often with little notice; • Some aspects of programs depend on the current faculty team as well as the goodwill and generosity of individuals, communities, and institutions which lend support. Please be advised that these or other variables may require changes before or during the program. Part of the SFS experience is adapting to changing conditions and overcoming the obstacles that may be present. In other words, the elephants are not always where we want them to be, so be flexible! Course Overview The mighty Mekong (derived from Mae Kongkea, meaning ‘big water’), one of Southeast Asia’s most productive and influential rivers, originates high in the Tibetan plateau and weaves south through China, Burma, Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia, finally reaching its terminus in the delta of Vietnam.

  • Destination: Angkor Archaeological Park the Complete Temple Guide
    Destination: Angkor Archaeological Park The Complete Temple Guide 1 The Temples of Angkor Ak Yom The earliest elements of this small brick and sandstone temple date from the pre-Angkorian 8th century. Scholars believe that the inscriptions indicate that the temple is dedicated to the Hindu 'god of the depths'. This is the earliest known example of the architectural design of the 'temple-mountain', which was to become the primary design for many of the Angkorian period temples including Angkor Wat. The temple is in a very poor condition. Angkor Thom Angkor Thom ("Great City") was the last and most enduring capital city of the Khmer empire. It was established in the late 12th century by King Jayavarman VII. The walled and moated royal city covers an area of 9 km², within which are located several monuments from earlier eras as well as those established by Jayavarman and his successors. At the centre of the city is Jayavarman's state temple, the Bayon, with the other major sites clustered around the Victory Square immediately to the north. Angkor Thom was established as the capital of Jayavarman VII's empire, and was the centre of his massive building programme. One inscription found in the city refers to Jayavarman as the groom and the city as his bride. Angkor Thom is accessible through 5 gates, one for each cardinal point, and the victory gate leading to the Royal Palace area. Angkor Wat Angkor Wat ("City of Temples"), the largest religious monument in the world, is a masterpiece of ancient architecture. The temple was built by the Khmer King Suryavarman II in the early 12th century as his state temple and eventual mausoleum.
