DAY 3. ANGKOR AT DAWN, FLOATING VILLAGES, AND OX CARTS

An early visit to Angkor Wat (sunrise optional). If arriving at Angkor around 7:30, most visitors have returned to their hotels for breakfast leaving the temple cool and quiet. Climb Phnom Bakheng. Very popular sunset spot when it is crazy busy! Offers good views of Tonle Sap Lake, the Angkor forest, and also Angkor Wat. Temple is nice also. 10-minute walk, but not too demanding.

Angkor Wat: The temple complex covers 81 hectares and is comparable in size to the Imperial Palace in Beijing. Its distinctive five towers are emblazoned on the Cambodian flag and the 12th-century masterpiece is considered by art historians to be the prime example of classical Khmer art and architecture. Angkor Wat's five towers symbolize Meru's five peaks - the enclosed wall represents the mountains at the edge of the world and the surrounding moat, the ocean beyond.

Return to Hotel

In the afternoon, drive out to Mechrey floating village a floating community located on the margins of Tonle Sap, nine kilometers west of Siem Reap, where the houses, schools, and even shops all sit bobbing on the water — though not in the dry season — as locals paddle around in traditional wooden boats.

Short ox cart trip around the village, supports community and is good fun for kids, no more than 20-30 mins though or parents will be uncomfortable.

Optional stop at Artisan Angkor's Silk Farm on the way. Here we can see the production of silk from the caterpillar to beautifully finished crafts. Nice stop and a supposedly good cause. Later, we return to your hotel for accommodation.
