Ta Prohm
Ta Prohm is unique in that it has been left as it was found; overgrown by jungle trees and vines, with many parts of the temple crumbling to the ground. This makes the ‘Tomb Raider Temple’ one of the most picturesque and memorable of the Angkor temples. Combined with the Banteay Kdei, one of the less-accessible temples, your afternoon starts in the same line as the morning. Taking in the smaller temple complexes completes your day, such as Sras Srong and Kravan Temple, cast a whole new light and shine because of their unique construction.
It is time to head back to your hotel and your choice to end the day on your bike or comfortably drive back aboard your support vehicle.
