Day 4 - 6

Drive from Siem Reap to Battambang (165 km, 5 hrs)

Battambang

2 Nights

Battambang is a province in the ‘heart of the Cambodian rice bowl’.

Included Activities

Idyllic Battambang Bike Excursion
After coffee and a short briefing at Kinyei Café, set out to explore Battambang on a mountain bike. In the early morning haze, notice locals draped in Krama scarves, and local monks on their alms walk. After a brief stop at the fish market, pass by neo-Khmer buildings next to colonial structures, including Sala Khaet (governor’s residence). Stop on a bridge across Battambang’s meandering Sangae river and admire the architectural vestige of old shops, colonial villas and crumbling pagodas along the banks. See kids heading to school and boats tootling down the river. Soak in the scenic surrounds of palm-fringed country roads, and the lush paddies around. Get introduced to Cambodian greetings courtesy of your guide. Meet with generations of families working on the production of prahok (fermented fish paste), rice paper, rice noodles, banana chips, dried fruits, rice wine, and Battambang’s famous rice cakes. Break to nibble on local snacks such as bamboo sticky rice treats and seasonal fruits before returning to your hotel. (Half Day; Time of day: 0700 hrs; Duration: 4 hrs; Distance: 18 miles; Private Activity & Transfer; Note: Tour unavailable for guests under the age of sixteen)

Day Trip to Wat Banan
Visit Wat Banan Temple, about 25km south of Battambang town…rather like a smaller replica of the more illustrious Angkor Wat. This Angkor era ancient temple sits atop a 400m high hill (near the ‘killing caves’) close to the Sangker river, depicting architecture of the mid-11th and end-12th centuries. Prepare to climb over 350 steep steps to the hill top for stunning 360 degree panoramic views. Wat Banan with its 5 towers, was once thought to be a prototype for Angkor Wat, although now dismissed by most scholars who date the structure later than Angkor. Nearby, see Wat Ek Phnom as well. Enjoy lunch at local restaurant before visiting Wat Phnom Sampov…see local life along the Sangker River. Drive back to your hotel before dinner time.

Now, a large memorial has been built to commemorate the 17,000 victims who died here under the reign of Khmer Rouge leader, Pol Pot. The remnants inside the memorial and the mass graves dotting the area, are a journey into Cambodia

Highlights of Phnom Penh
Explore the finest examples of Khmer architecture with this marvellous city tour. The Royal Palace is a grand building overlooking a tranquil plaza and still houses Cambodia’s royalty, King Sihamoni. On the south side of the palace lies the Silver Pagoda, which is aptly named as it has been crafted out of 5,329 solid silver tiles. Wander along to Wat Preah Keo Morakot, the Buddhist temple where Royal ceremonies are performed, or Wat Phnom, the namesake of the city.
