This is one of our most popular tours which will take you out of Siem Reap to an abandoned Angkorian capital (928-944 A.D.), Koh Ker. It is the Mayan-looking pyramid temple of Cambodia with other-smaller surrounding temples such as Prasat Pram, Prasat Bak, Prasat Damrei, Prasat Chrap. Many archaeologists assume that this temple was built during the Angkor Wat period in the early 12th century because its style of architecture looks exactly the same as Angkor Wat. Thus, this temple was built during king Suryavarman II’s reign who also constructed Angkor Wat temple.

We will begin our journey to Koh Ker very early in the morning. We will travel on National Road 6 to Koh Ker, located 120km from Siem Reap city. Koh Ker was briefly the capital of the Khmer Empire from 928 to 944 A.D during the reigns of kings Jayavarman IV and Harshavarman II. There are a few people living near the temple, and it is enclosed by the forest, so many tourists haven’t made the trip to Koh Ker. There are more than 180 temples in a preserved area of 81 square kilometres, but only 24 monuments are open to tourists since most of the sanctuaries are hidden in the jungle.
