This place is amazing, so many temples even older than Angkor Wat. There are a few great spots but it’s up to you how you want to explore it. I would suggest allocate 3-4 hours for this magnificent place, a lot of people miss this great spot as it’s a little out of the way, but if you are travelling by private car / taxi, this is worth the Ten Dollars USD cost I must say. This gave me a totally different look, feel and experience comparing to the Angkor Wat
Sambour Preykuk has many ancient temples and good tour guides waiting to serve you. For foreigner you need to buy ticket which costs $10. If you want to enjoy visit community you can stay at nice homestay with warm welcome from house owners.
Sambor Prey Kuk is an ancient temple complex located in Kampong Thom Province, Cambodia. It is one of the most significant pre-Angkorian sites in the country. The site consists of over 100 temples made of brick and laterite. Peaceful area, it’s far less crowded than Angkor. You guys can enjoy cycling through the ruins, connection with nature and history. You also can stay overnight at the village but there's only homestay available. If you ever get the chance, you should definitely visit it’s a peaceful and unforgettable experience away from the crowds..
The temple is built during Chenla Era of the Khmer empire history. It's older than Angkor Wat temple but unfortunately, there is less people have known about this place. I would recommend more tourist to visit and learn about this place.
The beautiful temple Prasat Sambor Prei Kuk Kampong Thom Province, Cambodia
So beautiful and amazing Temple in Cambodia 🇰🇭
One of the must-visit places in Cambodia is the World Heritage site. You can ask the complement community guide on-site upon arrival. They're the best knowledge to guide you around for 1-3hs. (Don't forget to give them a tip!) A lot of the temples are under construction. No credit card can be used at the ticket center! Please have your cash. You can pay in USD too.
Very beautiful temples in the forrest. Absolutely worth a visit, special vibe here. Also, so few people if you visit early.
