カンボジアでののおすすめツーリングルート

The South Gate of Angkor Thom is the most famous of the five gates to the imperial capital founded by Jayavarman VII at the end of the 12th century. It lies on the central north-south axis connecting Angkor Wat with the Bayon and is reached via a stone bridge adorned with monumental sculptures.

Angkor Wat, a monument steeped in history, is Cambodia's most important landmark. It's no coincidence that the temple, with its distinctive five towers reminiscent of lotus blossoms, is depicted in many places, such as on the Cambodian riel banknotes and the official national flag. Furthermore, as a cultural asset of Cambodia, Angkor Wat has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1992. Angkor means "city" and Wat means "temple," literally translating to "city temple." Some sources suggest that the term "Vat" is of Thai origin and means "monastery."

Each of the 54 towers is adorned with the four faces of Avalokiteshvara (Buddha of Compassion). These large heads all gaze in different compass directions, radiating power and control with a hint of pity or compassion – a perfect mix to describe this realm.

The buildings were constructed from artfully designed sandstone. The entire area, including the moat, measures just under 1.5 km in a west-east direction and just under 1.3 km in a north-south direction. The moat is between 170 and 190 meters wide and encloses the inner area.

Bayon is the main temple of Angkor Thom. It has been a World Heritage Site since 1992. The central sanctuary is round, not square. The temple is not surrounded by a wall, but by open colonnades. On the towers, around 200 faces of Lokeshvara, up to 7 meters high, were carved into the stone. Originally, there were 49 towers, of which only 37 partially rebuilt ones remain today. It covers an area of 9 km². Absolutely stunning. Warning: There are a lot of monkeys here.

The Bayon (Khmer: ប្រាសាទបាយ័ន; originally Madhyadri) is, alongside Angkor Wat, the most famous and impressive temple complex in Angkor (Siem Reap Province, Cambodia) - famous above all for its towers with meter-high faces carved from stone. In the late 12th century, King Jayavarman VII (reigned from 1181 to around 1219) began building the new capital of the Khmer Empire, Angkor Thom (big city). The Bayon was built as the main temple in the center of the 9 km² city, surrounded by a wall, which begins about 1 km north of Angkor Wat. Source: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayon

The South Gate of Angkor Thom, or Tonle Om Gate, is one of the five ancient gates dating back to the 12th century that provide access through the 8m high laterite walls of Angkor Thom. The South Gate has the best restored causeway and reveals the awe-inspiring effect that must surely have been one of the original intentions of its ancient builders. In its day, there would have been no doubt that you were entering the realm of the gods and looking down on one of the truly greatest wonders of the world, an effect it still has today.

It's quite touristy here, with a wide range of restaurants, often tailored to tourists with prices to match. In the neighboring streets, however, you can still find some typical Khmer cuisine at reasonable prices and if you look more closely, you'll also find rooftop restaurants with a great view over the sea of houses.

bustling day market

beautiful wat from the 17th. century with a dark time during the Khmer Rouge

Did not have the right clothes to enter temple at top of hill, so decided to right around the base, which showed some lovely local villages, temples and schools.

Incredible hate entry with Bayon style enormous 4-way facing Buddha. And no tourists!

FAR TOO MANY PEOPLE, BUT STILL A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE
