FRI 5th: up at 5am to take tuk tuk at 5:30 to angkor wat to see sunrise over the temple. temples were fascinating, site is huge, temples were huge. steps were insanely steep. visited like 11 / 12 temples. the details they went into for the stone decoration was facinating. must have taken them hundreds of yrs to build. temples visited were angkor wat, ankor thom (beng thom, bayoun, baphoun, phineanakas), chau say tevoda, thommanom, ta keo, ta phrom, srah srang (pool) and banteay kdei. then after that climbed hill to another temple, phnom bakheng and watched the sunset over cambodia. back in siem reap, went to dead fish for food, then bed.
one downside of the angkor area, is that there is a hell of alot of kids, mainly girls trying to sell you stuff. friendly doing it but so many it does get to u. and they pull all the lines like if u dont buy then i will cry.
