Phnom Kulen National Park Tour Bantay Srei Beng Mealea Temple

Kulen Moutain is a national park of Cambodia lying about an hour from Siem Reap. It was an ancient city recently discovered by an Ultra-Sound scanning technology of Laida. It is home of many ancient temples, waterfalls and sacred sites. Beng Mealea is a temple lying to the east of the National Park Kulen which is more than an hour drive from Siem Reap town. The temple is perfectly constructed and carved during the reign of King Suryavarman II, early of the 12th century which is the same period of Angkor Wat. It is the only temple still preserved in its natural state (untouched) by archeologists. The ruined state and parasite trees growing all over the temple provides an endless impression to all visitors. The program and tour are conducted by Fin who has been working in the guiding field for more than 20 years with excellent English. These years, he has been working with many well-known companies and is still their favorite guide. He will bring you into the depth of local culture.

Kulen Mountain Park and its waterfall are among the most spectacular locations in Cambodia. Experience the famous reclining Buddha and swim in the stunning plunge pool at the foot of the waterfall. Beng Mealea is a true hidden gem of Angkor—much less visited than the temples in Siem Reap, this incredible site has been partially reclaimed by the jungle. The trees climbing the walls and ruined ceilings create a hauntingly beautiful atmosphere. Many travelers fortunate enough to see it report that it’s among their favorite places in Cambodia. Explore all this with a local Khmer guide, who will provide insight into what life was like when these amazing structures were built. As this is a private tour, we can customize it to your needs.
