Settled in the south easternmost portion of the Indochina
peninsula lies the charming kingdom of Cambodia, a country that cast a magical spell through its diverse landscape and antique structure. The nation is a
beautiful amalgamation of rich culture, bustling market, delectable gastronomy,
and centuries-old ruins. Sharing its border with Vietnam in the east and
Thailand in the west, it is fascinating to see how the endemic masonry of India
entrenched its tentacles in most parts of Asia and Cambodia is one of them.
On a Cambodia Tours While crisscrossing through this glorious country visiting
Angkor Wat is a gratifying moment for many travelers. Built as a Hindu Temple
dedicated to Lord Vishnu for the Khemar Empire the place gradually transformed
into a Buddhist Monastery by the end of the twelfth century. Spread across 400
sq km, the site has beautifully preserved the intricate designs of the temple.
Angkor Wat is a beautiful combination of trees (growing out of the ruins) and
other temples. One could spend a whole day in this mossy wonderland soaking in
the glory of its laudable past.
Those who want to get the taste of rich birdlife of Cambodia
must visit Prek Toal. Consists of seasonally inundated freshwater swamp forest
with high botanical diversity, Prek Toal is a renowned bird sanctuary harboring
an array of winged species including seven species of water birds Spot-billed Pelican, Milky Stork, Painted
Stork, Lesser Adjutant, Greater Adjutant, Black-headed Ibis, Oriental Darter,
Grey-Headed Fish Eagles and the secretive Masked Finfoot.
Koh Ker is yet another destination giving you a glimpse of
the great Khemar empire that ruled this nation from the 9th to the 13th
centuries. Also known as Lingapura or 'the city of Linga', Koh Ker is a remote
temple site which is adorned with many sanctuaries and a seven-tiered pyramid
structure. The place is filled with beautiful sculptures which are now
transformed into a museum.
At Beng Mealea one can get to behold the mysteries temple
ruins belonging to the less-discovered days of Angkor Wat. It is believed to
have been erected during the reign of King Suryavaraman in the 12th Century.
Not much is known about its origins, however, one can uncover Hindu and a few
Buddhist motifs while exploring the area.
The most memorable vacations do not always involve nice
forts, iconic palaces, or rich wildlife. Some places are meant to leave you
speechless through its spiritual history and mystical structures.
