Siem Reap Travel Guide talks elaborately regarding Siem Reap Tourist Attractions. The Angkor temples head the list; so far the Things to see in Siem Reap are concerned. Here you will watch Bayon Temple in Siem Reap, Terrace of the Leper King in Siem Reap, Terrace of the Elephants in Siem Reap, Beng Melea in Siem Reap and Aki Ra's Landmine Museum in Siem Reap.
Bayon Temple in Siem Reap features the huge stone faces of the bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. The curious smiling image has been interpreted by some the "Mona Lisa of Southeast Asia." Some thinks it to be a representation of Jayavarman himself.
Terrace of the Leper King in Siem Reap is one of plentiful mysteries of Angkor. Some think the small asexual statue resembles king Yasovarman who'd have died from the leprosy. On the other hand, it is thought to be the image of Yama. Experience the magnificent sculptures representing Apsaras, geniuses and monsters, quantity of divinities, a surprising coolness and beauty.
After you pass the Bayon and Baphuon, see the Terrace of the Elephants on the left. It is two and a half meters high, and decorated with its namesake reliefs of elephants on one side and garudas (bird-men) on the other.
Situated at 60km east of Siem Reap, Beng Melea requires a day trip after a stop at the Roluos Group to get explored by the travelers. Experience the temple aficionado's ancient temple amidst jungle. Kids will love it.There are no replies to this story. Make sure you're the first one to post a reply!
