About this experience
The Grand Circuit at Angkor Park is unique because it provides access to less-visited, more remote temples, offering a more peaceful and less crowded experience than the main Small Circuit. Highlights include the island temple of Neak Pean, the temple of Ta Som with its striking tree-entwined gate, and the sunset-view temple of Pre Rup. This circuit is a good option for those with more time who want to explore deeper into the park's wonders.
Banteay Srei is unique for its highly intricate, 3D carvings in a soft, pinkish sandstone, its relatively miniature size compared to other Angkor temples, and the fact that it was not commissioned by a king, but by a Brahman courtier. It is often called the "jewel of Khmer art" or the "Citadel of the Women" due to the delicate and detailed craftsmanship.
