Angkor small around:

Angkor Wat –  Angkor Thom – Bayon – Bapuon – Prasats Suor Prat – Elephant terrance –

Chao Say Thevoda – Thommanon – Ta Keo – Ta Phrom

There were three kinds of Angkor tickets pass.

One day 20 USD

Three days 40 USD

Seven days 60 USD

I bought Angkor pass which three days in a  week.

跟大多數遊客一樣，凌晨四點半起床，沒有吃早餐，匆匆奔向Angkor Wat  for see sunrise.

等了一個多小時，沒有等到傳說中美景的景象。

我對日出並不感冒，所以也沒覺得後悔。

Angkor Wat 中文名 小吳哥城，根據字面意思叫做 吳哥寺。

也就是常常聽說的吳哥窟。

Angkor Wat 建於 Suryavarman II 時期，是吳哥王朝的盛世之一。

吳哥寺是全世界最大的宗教古蹟，東西長1.5公里，南北寬1.3公里，總面積約200公頃。

建築安排完全地展現印度教的宇宙觀，

最外圈的護城河代表著宇宙海，城牆則象徵環繞須彌山的山丘，寺內的五座高塔代表著須彌山的五座山峰，供奉的神像就置於高塔內。

寺外與城牆間的廣大土地則是皇宮與城市的所在地。

日出之後，沒有到外面吃早餐，而是直接進來參觀了。空空蕩蕩的寺廟，時不時會見到幾個小孩來回奔跑穿梭。

他們是暹粒當地的小孩，知道旅遊路線，也喜歡帶遊客走偏僻的道路，然後索取1美金的報酬。

第一次路過這條四方形回廊的時候，並沒有覺得很特別。

後來再次路過的時候，聽到一個導遊解釋說，這條回廊叫佛教廊，四條通道代表東南西北。

通往Angkor Thom 中文名大吳哥城的南門。貌似大多數遊客都選擇這個門進入。

大吳哥城佔地九平方公里，為四邊各為三公里的正方形王城，周圍有寬一百公尺的護城河，東西南北各開一城門。

此外，在東門北側，再開一個城門。

大吳哥城是Jayavarman VII 國王所建的國都，號稱是吳哥王朝最輝煌的時代。

城門高20公尺，門上雕有四面佛像，

四面都刻著吳哥王朝全盛時期國王Jayavarman VII 的面容，唯與印度教不同的是此乃象徵眼觀四面耳聽八方的四面佛菩薩。

這就是高棉的微笑。

巴戎廟   Bayon

最特殊的設計，是每一座塔的四面都刻有3公尺高的Jayavarman七世的微笑面容。

一段導遊解說詞如下，感覺滿優美的。

兩百多個微笑浮現在蔥綠的森林中，多變的光線或正或側，時強時弱地探照，

樹草中的蟲鳥此起彼落的交織輪唱，

好似一個聲光舞台秀，軒昂的眉宇、中穩的鼻樑、熱情的厚唇、慈善的氣質，

國王的微笑反而勝過建築本身的宏偉，

無怪會後代子孫尊稱為「高棉的微笑」。

I did not know this miss Cambodia who wanted took photo with me.

Jayavarman VII was our background.

牆上的壁畫很有意思。

前兩幅是軍隊官兵處死罪人，最後一幅描繪的是軍隊炊事班。

突然覺得自己看也很沒有意思，聽人說比較精彩。

貌似中國遊客對這種壁畫不感興趣，總是匆匆而過。

其他語種導遊比較辛苦，從壁畫頭一直講到壁畫尾。

哈哈O(∩_∩)O哈哈

這個真的要聽導遊說了。

光看能看出他們是Chinese Cambodia麼？

一個英文導遊跟一對夫婦解釋說，怎麼知道他們是Chinese Cambodia呢，因為他們用的兵器和工具，當時只有中國才有。

巴本宮殿  Bapuon

Jayavarman VII 所遺留下來的建築群

這樣高梯街只是Angkor trip的開始

周薩神廟   Chao Say Thevoda

周薩 神廟】此處為12世紀初之建築，廟中主神為婆羅門教三大天神之仳思奴神。

現由中國專家負責維修。

依現行法令規定，後續所補上之石墩或石柱都不可有任何雕刻，以作為與遺跡之區別。

塔凱歐寺    Ta Keo

寺中供奉三大天神之濕婆神。

建造過程中跨越兩個王朝，因此四面門中僅有東面大門有雕刻。

而所有吳哥窟遺址群之建築都是先將石頭堆積再行雕刻。

好不容易手腳並用爬上了這個階梯，差點下不來。

我的媽呀！

居然還有MM踩細高跟和夾角拖鞋上去的。

真的是拼啦！

塔普倫神廟   Ta Phrom

建於12世紀末，尊奉婆羅門教及佛教，有巨大的樹木盤結在圍牆廟門口，彷彿愛恨糾纏般的浪漫。

This was famous scenic spot because of movie <Tomb Raider>.

到底是先有樹還是先有房子的呢？

高棉王朝最輝煌的縮影不斷沒落，只有大樹見證。

真的像是愛情糾葛嗎？

一對台灣老夫婦要印證他們堅實的愛情。

Kuala Lumpur — Siem Reap, Tonle Sap river, Old Market

When I in airplane, I though why this one hour so long.

I forgot the time in Cambodia was different from Kuala Lumpur.

I got one hour was trip gift.

I did not like one gate for three flights in KLIA. It really made some people confused.

I liked this flight meal. It was better than before I from HongKong to Kuala Lempur.

Khmer Chicken rice was delicious.

After I arrived Siem Reapairport, I had to took Vises on arrival firstly, 20 USD.

Visa process more smoothly than I expected, nobody asked me for tips.

A staff showed his Chinese when he saw my passport was China.PRC

Anyway, all staffs friendly and were not terrible.

The sunshine so strong.

Later I knew that Cambodia near equator 100m.

I booked guest house and free pick-up from airport.

Golden Mango Inn gest house.

It was so nice guest house,but 7km from old market.

A bit inconvenient.

My room was doule room, they let me lived in this room.

Actually I did not know why but the room rates is same single room, 14 USD per night included breakfast.

In the afternoon, I visited Tonle Sap river.

I heard Tonle Sap was a good place to watched the sunset, but I did not wait it.

This was not sea.

Oct was rain season, Tonle Sap river expand 6 km. In dry season, it just 1 km.

Ji-yun, my housemate, she was last night in Siem Reap.

Thanks God! She got my sms and we had a meeting at night.

Before I came to Combodia, I heard there was not ATM and VISA also was not useful.

All things must use cash.

So now already changed?

Mr.Fish massage

Angkor Beer, really cheap and nice beer.

This was main reason miss Kim Ji-yun wanted live in here.

By the way,

after Tareq left, I first time went to KLIA.

Too quiet.

It seems in Ramadan because I did not see lots people in McDonld’s.

When I acrossed departure, two muslim women were hugging each other and they were crying.

I memorized you.

I had wanted to visit Cambodia since when I studied the second year in university.

This was my dream place.

Made this plan to visited Cambodia so temporarily.

I was not sure I would have holiday in that time, but I tried to took a holiday for visit there.

I wanted quite all things same as 6 months ago and then went to Cambodia.

By the time I booked flight tickets, I had not any plan.

I believed just went to there and then I could find myself.

I had to this trip alone.

Before I left KL, I read a lot of information about Cambodia.

A lot of visitors appeal everyone help the poor children of Cambodia in internet.

I changed US dollar, especially small money.

I bought two boxes pencil for poor children, of course it was not enough.

I took a packet of sweets which is my gift from Mongolia and some cookies from Macau.
