In the morning we will visit the ancient Khmer civilization site of Hariharalaya which flourished in the late 9th and earlier 10th centuries. These are the earliest temples in the Angkor area and are referred to the Rolous group (Lo Lei, PreahKoh, and Bakhong Temples). Lunch with a local family and then we will drive to the rural outskirts, 35km from Angkor area, to visit the smallest, but magnificent, BanteaySrei temple, built in the 10th Century and dedicated to Shiva. The temple was the birthplace of Khmer classical style architecture and the bas-relief work is the best example of Khmer classical art remaining. The pink sandstone structure bears a series of striking and beautiful sculptures, lintels, pediments and friezes. Khmers say the temple must have been carved by women because the details are too fine for a man’s hand. On the way back to Siem Reap we will visit the BanteaySamre Temple adorned with impressive reliefs depicting scenes of Vishnu as well as Krishna legends..
