Meet your guide again this morning to head off to the marvellous temple of Angkor Wat, a world heritage site featuring the most extraordinary towers and bas-reliefs. This is one of the most astonishing monuments ever conceived by mankind, and was erected in the 12th century (1112-1152) in honour of Vishnu. From the temple, transfer by private vehicle (or possibly by cow carts) to a remote, untouched temple where your private picnic lunch is set up and waiting for you. After a delicious lunch, relax under the trees with a soothing foot massage before starting your afternoon activities. In the afternoon, pay a visit to the ancient Ta Prohm monastery where immense branches have taken root in the stones.
