Why small group tours?

While it’s still big enough to have a great communal atmosphere, it’s still intimate enough that you may explore each spot on your own. Our small semi-private groups are never more than ten people.

We continue to use this as the standard upper limit for the size of small groups because it has consistently been highlighted as an important selling element by all of our client’s testimonials. Because of the frequent positive feedback we’ve received from our guests regarding our ability to handle small groups, we’ve decided that this will be the typical maximum number of people in a group.

PS: Bakong Temple is an incredible temple and a fascinating must-see attraction. All our visitors love it, especially for the amount of beautiful pictures they can take.

Bakong Temple is considered the prototype of later Angkor temples and is the largest and most complex of the Roluos group. The temple was built during the reign of King Indravarman I in the late 9th century AD, as the state temple of the first capital of the Khmer empire.

The temple is a pyramid-shaped structure, with five levels and a central tower. The first level is a rectangular platform with an open pavilion, and the second and third levels have four large gates with carvings of guardian figures. The fourth level is a smaller platform with four smaller towers, and the central tower is on the fifth level. The central tower looks like the temple on Mount Meru, which Hindus and Buddhists believe is the center of the world.

The temple is also known for its intricate carvings, which include scenes from Hindu mythology and everyday life. The carvings on the lintels and pediments depict scenes from the Ramayana and Mahabharata epics, as well as scenes of daily life such as farming, hunting, and music-making.
Bakong Temple is an incredibly photogenic place, and it is a must-see attraction for anyone visiting Siem Reap and Cambodia.

The temple’s pyramid shape, intricate carvings, and lush surroundings make it a photographer’s paradise, offering many opportunities for beautiful pictures; a great place for photography enthusiasts and amateur photographers to practice their skills and capture some stunning shots.

➤ Why is the Preah Ko temple so important?

Another temple in the Roluos complex is the Preah Ko temple, which means “Sacred Bull” in Khmer. It was dedicated to King Indravarman I’s forefathers and was built during his reign in the late 9th century. The temple has six towers set in two rows of three towers each. The towers are intricately carved with motifs from Hindu mythology as well as everyday life. The Preah Ko temple is notable for its distinctive architectural design, which has a rare twin cruciform pattern in Khmer temples.

Visiting the Preah Ko temple is a terrific way to witness the ancient Khmer civilization’s distinctive architectural architecture and beautiful carvings. The temple’s architectural architecture demonstrates the skill and ingenuity of the ancient Khmer builders, and the sculptures provide insight into the ancient Khmer people’s beliefs and daily lives. The temple’s location in the Roluos group also allows for comparison with other temples in the area and a sense of the evolution of Khmer architectural style over time.

Aside from its historical and architectural value, the Preah Ko temple is an excellent location for photography lovers and amateur photographers to hone their abilities and capture some astonishing images. The exquisite carvings and distinctive architectural design provide excellent photo opportunities. Furthermore, visiting the Lolei and Preah Ko temples will allow you to uncover Rolous’ hidden beauties, which are less crowded than Angkor’s temples.

Overall, visiting the Lolei and Preah Ko temples is a terrific way to learn about Cambodian history and culture while also discovering Rolous’ hidden beauties. These temples are not only a fascinating must-see site but also an excellent opportunity to immerse yourself in Cambodia’s rich history and culture, making them an excellent addition to any travel itinerary.
