After breakfast, we travel by support vehicle, just about 15 minutes from the hotel. We cycle to Sambor Prei Kuk, a ruined complex that dates back to the Pre-Angkorian Chenla Kingdom from the late 6th to 9th century. The property comprises more than a hundred temples, ten of which are octagonal, unique specimens of their genre in South-East Asia. The countryside to Sambor Prei Kuk is beautiful with stilted house villages, colossal rice paddy fields, and plenty of palm trees.

The roads are mixe of dirt tracks on rural and country roads, with less traffic through the small towns. We visit the temple on foot, walk-on track, and learn about the site of Sambor Prei Kuk, "the temple in the richness of the forest" in the Khmer language, has been identified as Ishanapura, the capital of the Chenla Empire that flourished in the late 6th and early 7th centuries AD.

Then we carry the ride moving to Siem Reap. Lunch en route and have vehicle transfer to Siem Reap. There is a coffee break at Kompong Kdei bridge for the opportunity photo taken.
