Preah Vihear & Koh Ker Group
The Preah Vihear temple is perched atop Dangrek Mountain in the Preah Vihear province, close to the Thailand Border. A journey from Siem Reap Town to this majestic temple takes approximately four-hour. Constructed during the Angkor Period, the Preah Vihear Temple was honored as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2008. A two-hour drive from Preah Vihear temple will lead you to the remarkable temples of the Koh Ker Group. This region once served as the capital city of the Khmer Empire in early 10th Century AD. The Koh Ker Temple Group garnered recognition as a World Heritage Site on 17th September 2023. Both sites offer a unique opportunity to explore two UNESCO World Heritage Sites in a single day, immersing visitors in the grandeur of Cambodia's ancient history.
