For all the hearty noise and bustle of its cities, Cambodia has pockets of aged serenity that have an uncanny effect on all those who visit her. Though by no means without visitors, one often gets the feeling that men haven’t set foot on these sites for centuries.

Tree roots embrace enigmatic stone edifices. Carved visages of Avalokitesvara smile down from ancient gateposts. And the ruins of the Khmer empire still stand proud, apparently isolated from the modern world.

Cambodia is one of those rare places that leave you feeling much edificed.

Cambodia - 3N/4D

Day 1

Arrive in Siem Reap and check in at your hotel. The rest of the day is free for you to explore the area around your hotel on your own.

Day 2

After a delicious breakfast at your hotel, take a tour of the fortified city of Angkor Thom, which stands in an area of 10 sq. km. Enter through the South Gate and continue to the Terrace of the Elephants and the Terrace of the Leper Kings. Visit the ruins of the Baphuon and the beautifully preserved Bayon Temple. Head to Ta Prohm and Banteay Srei, two ancient, intricately carved temples. Watch the sun set over the countryside from the upper terrace of this ancient temple before you return to your hotel.

Day 3

Today is a day you are unlikely to forget. After breakfast, set off to Angkor Wat, the country’s most revered and best preserved Angkor temple. Wander through the main building, admiring the exquisite carvings of 1,700 celestial dancers all around you. In the evening, you have the choice of visiting Puok silk farm, where you will learn about silk production; or Les Chantiers Ecoles, a vocational centre that trains artisans in sculpture, woodcarving and other arts.

Day 4

After breakfast, set off to the airport to catch your flight home.
