SIEM REAP ARRIVAL (D)
You will be picked up from Siem Reap airport. Begin your tour to the antique capital of Angkor Thom and start at the South Gate with its huge statues depicting the churning of the ocean of milk, the Bayon Temple, unique for its 54 towers decorated with over 200 smiling faces of Avolokitesvara, the Phimeanakas, the Royal Enclosure, the Elephants Terrace and the Terrace of the Leper King. In the afternoon, drive to Kompong Phluk, about 16km southeast of Siem Reap. Kompong Phluk is accessible by boat only. It is a relatively small village that provides very good insight into the village lifestyle of the Tonle Sap Lake area. This village exists almost exclusively on fishing and related activities. Houses are built on stilts up to 10m high and are surrounded by flooded forest. Tonight, enjoy your dinner with an Apsara Dance Show at a local restaurant.
