Private Tour to Banteay Chhmar Temple

Travelling to Banteay Chhmar takes a little effort but this should not deter you. The temple sees very few visitors mainly due to its remote location and this will earn you the well deserved bragging explorer’s rights.

We are going to pick up you and transfer by a comfortable van with A/C. This takes some 2 hours to reach the enchanting structures hiding in the jungle surrounded by moat. This late 12th – early 13th century Buddhist temple is located in the northwest corner of Cambodia’s Banteay Meanchay province and only 20km from the Thai border. It is one of the largest temple-city complexes built by a Khmer king. The temple is in a bad state of preservation as little restoration efforts were conducted here in the 21st century. The layout resembles Angkor Thom and other structures attributed to Jayavarman VII. The outer gallery is carved with bas-relief depicting military engagements and daily life scenes very similar to the well known ones in Bayon. Travelling to Banteay Chhmar takes a little effort but this should not deter you. The temple sees very few visitors mainly due to its remote location and this will earn you the well deserved bragging explorer’s rights. If time permitted, we go further to visit Prasat Banteay Toap. On the way back, we can pause to get briefings about the Ancient Bridge namely Spean Toap meaning Soldier Bridge in English.
