- Banteay Srei: Famous for its intricate carvings and red sandstone construction. One of Cambodia’s most beautifully detailed temples.

After a local breakfast (takeaway recommended), continue the morning with visits to:
- South Gate of Angkor Thom: Lined with statues of gods and demons leading into the ancient capital.
