Cambodia Part 3


I have been saving the best for last, Angkor. The national park known as Angkor in fact holds numerous temples and sites. We spent an entire day roaming about the sites, and another at further sites around Siem Reap. I have to many picts to upload here, so you will just have to follow this Link.

Around the area we saw temples with amazingly detailed engravings, monkeys, and even managed a short trek. People often only see the end product of the trips and don't realize how difficult it is to get to certain places. Case in point, Kbal Spean is known for its River of Lingas, to get there, however is a 10 km ride on the back of a motorcycle over an unpaved potholed road that gets muddy and nearly impassable in the rainy season. The hike up is through picturesque landscape however and is worth the trip up. In summary, I loved Cambodia, and recommend that everyone get there as soon as possible….
