      Morning: Breakfast Kingdom of Jayavarman VII (1181-1219): Angkor Thom
      the last capital
      was indeed a “Great City” as its name implies
      and it served as the religious and administrative centre of the vast and powerful Khmer Empire. Southern Gate of Angkor Thom: The stone causeway across the broad moat surrounding the city of Angkor Thom with their unique gopuras
      are one of the great sights at Angkor

      late 12th century: The Bayon is
      with Angkor Wat
      one of the favourite monuments among visitors. The temple was build nearly 100 year after Angkor Wat. While its basic structure and earliest part of the temple are unknown
      it is clear that the Bayon was built on top of an earlier monument
      that the temple was not built at one time
      and that it underwent a series of changes. Third Angkor capital (11th century): Baphuon
      middle of 11th century: The massive size and grandeur of the Baphuon is unrecognisable today because much of the temple has either collapsed or been dismantled. The EFEO was restoring this temple when it was forced to abandon work and leave Angkor in 1972 because of war; they have now resumed their work. With a total cost estimated of USD 10 million

      end of 12th century: The terrace shows evidence of having been rebuild and added to; and it is believed that alterations took place during the reign of Jayavarman VII at the end of the 12th or beginning of the 13th century. The 300 meters long terrace has three main platforms and two subsidiary ones. One of the main attractions of this terrace is the facade decorated with elephants and their riders depicted in profile. Terrace of Leper King
      end of 12th century: The curious name of this terrace refers to a statue of the Leper King that is on the platform of the terrace. The one you see today is a copy. The original is in the courtyard of the National Museum in Phnom Penh. Afternoon: Visit Ta Prohm
      early 13th century: This temple was left untouched by archaeologists
      except for the clearing of a path for visitors. Because of its natural state
      it is possible to experience some of the wonder of the early explorers
      when they came upon this monument in the middle of the 19th century. The monastic complex of Ta Prohm is one of the largest sites at Angkor. A Sanskrit inscription on stone
      tells us that it took 79’365 people to maintain the temple
