Continue to visit the largest FIG tree at Ta Prohm temple, one of the area’s most beautiful temples, Ta Prohm has been relatively untouched since it was discovered and retains much of its mystery.

Angkor Wat temple

It is Citadel of Women is probably related to the intricacy of the bas-relief carvings of devatas found on the walls and the tiny dimensions of the buildings themselves and Banteay Samre. The style of the towers and balustrades bear a strong resemblance to the towers of Angkor Wat and even more so to the Khmer temple of Phimai in Thailand. Many of the carvings are in excellent condition.
