Sambor Prei Kuk Temple Tour a UNESCO World Heritage Site

Under the guidance of a professional archaeologist visit the pre-Angkorian temples of Sambor Prei Kuk. Immersed in peace and silence, in the middle of the forest, they constitute a beautiful attraction away from more crowded tourist areas. The mainly octogonal temples were built of bricks on the site of ancient Ishanapura, which was the capital of the Chenla Empire that flourished over much of Southeast Asia in the late 6th and early 7th centuries AD. Inscriptions in Sanskrit and old Khmer on some of the temples suggest the centralized state was run by a “God-King”. Sambor Prei Kuk is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
