For me this is a childhood dream come through. As a little girl, I was fascinated about these temples in the jungle. We wanted to do a proper visit and bought a three day pass. As recommended from others, we started out with the greater circle and the smaller temples. A great start with some really nice temples. I specially liked Pre Rup (one of the early temples), Neak Pean (a cute little water temple), Preah Khan (big, interesting and less crowded) and the interesting South gate. We ended the day with sunset at Phnom Bakheng. Only 300 persons are allowed up there at a time, so you need to be there early, at least an hour before sunset. It was ok, but not spectacular. The next day we started early with sunrise at Angkor Wat. Lots of people, but not great sunrise really. Maybe better another time of the year? Anyway, nice to get an early start. Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom and Ta Phrom is a must. The reliefs at Angkor Wat is wonderful, the faces at Bayon interesting and Ta Phrom- setting in the jungle is a great place for Kodak moments. We ended the day by visiting of the outermost temples Banteay Samre, nice and quiet, and Banteay Srei, a small jewel. We also stopped at several smaller sites on the way. By the second day we have covered the site more or less. The last remaining Rolous group we visited in a few hours on the third day. They were actually built before the Angkor Thom and Wat and was a little bit different, and was the in the first Khmer capital. Interesting but not a must. In retrospective Preah Ko had some similarities to Samar prei Kuk I think. We also did a revisit to Angkor Wat in the afternoon, different lightning and an opportunity to study the reliefs more closely. They are really magnificent! Definitely a great place to spend my #500 WHS anniversary!
