We will then head over to Banteay Srei which is called the “Citadel of the Women” in English. It’s believed that the carvings are so intricate that they could only have been carved by the delicate hands of women.This stunning temple is a must-see for anyone interested in learning the fascinating history of the Khmer people. Instead, Banteay Srey temple was built in the reign of two kings Rajendravarman II and Jayavarman V. The 3 main shrines of the structure were dedicated to Lord Shiva, Lord Vishnu and Lord Brahma.

Landmines left over from Cambodia’s many conflicts still kill dozens of locals a year. The Cambodia Landmine Museum, founded by former child soldier Aki Ra, shows the horrors of this national curse. The small, largely open-air museum reopened in January 2019 after a fire led to its closure.
Banteay Samre
2h · Admission ticket not included
Finally, we’ll head over to Banteay Samre. This is a 12th century Hindu temple which was built in the style of Angkor Wat.
