What makes Full-Day Private Tour: Preah Vihea and Koh Ker Temple a unique experience ?
Preah Vihea Temple is a historically significant temple complex situated atop a cliff in the Dângrêk Mountains on the Cambodia-Thailand border. It offers stunning panoramic views and showcases unique Khmer architecture with intricate carvings. The complex features gopuras, prasats, and sacred shrines dedicated to Hindu deities. A long causeway flanked by naga balustrades leads to the temple. With a rich history dating back to the Khmer Empire, it holds cultural and religious importance as a Hindu pilgrimage site.
