Constructed in a distinctly Angkor Wat style under the same king that built Angkor Wat, Beng Melea preceded and may have served as a prototype of sorts for Angkor Wat. Though there are some lintel and doorway carving, there are no bas-relief and the carvings are comparatively sparse. When the temple was active, the walls may have been covered, painted or had frescos. In its time, Beng Melea was at the crossroads of several major highways that ran to Angkor, Koh Ker, Preah Vihear (in northern Cambodia) and northern Vietnam....

Day I - Beng Melea Excursion
Beng Melea – you will be met and welcomed by our English speaking guide at your preferred pick-up location and then transferred to visit Beng Melea. Sprawling jungle temple covering over one square kilometer, the temple is largely overrun by vegetation and very lightly touristed, giving it an adventours, ‘lost temple’ feel. Photographers: trees growing from the broken towers and galleries offer some of the best ‘tree in temple’ shots aside from Ta Prohm. Constructed in a distinctly Angkor Wat style under the same king that built Angkor Wat, Beng Melea preceded and may have served as a prototype of sorts for Angkor Wat. Though there are some lintel and doorway carving, there are no bas-relief and the carvings are comparatively sparse. When the temple was active, the walls may have been covered, painted or had frescos. In its time, Beng Melea was at the crossroads of several major highways that ran to Angkor, Koh Ker, Preah Vihear (in northern Cambodia) and northern Vietnam.

Siem Reap - Beng Melea - Siem Reap
Posted Date: Thursday 2nd of October 2014
Family tour to Angkor Wat
We had a really good 1 1/2 days with our guide Sophoan. Every arrangement we made via email with him before hand worked to perfection - from pickup at the airport and transport to the hotel to dropping off at the airport on the last day again.
As we only had 1 1/2 days so Sophan had planned a good itinerary to see all of the important sites. While a lot to take in on the same day, and I would recommend others to stretch it out a bit more if you can, it was very good. Sophan was good at explaining and definitely knows about the place.
Sophoan was patient even when some in our group started on an extensive shopping spree - believe me, in my family that can be quiet extensive (and with the "insistent sellers" not that easy to get out of - never accept the first price quoted!).
We strongly recommend that you ask Sophoan about taking you to the local marked. Ask him to bring you to the marked near his house. Its a really local market and while you most likely will not buy anything there (unless you know how to deal in gold as strangely enough there are gold shops in the middle of the marked only seen the like in Dubai) it is a real experience to walk around - and no "insistent sellers"!.
If you are a bit squirmish though you may want to skip the meat and fish section although it provides a good contrast to the almost sterile supermarket environment "western" travellers may be used to.
As a final note - if you have a bit of time ask Sophoan about his personal history and his family. Hearing about his youth and the experiences he had makes you appreciate the safety and comfort of growing up in a "modern" country and reminds you to take joy even in the little things and that it may be good to share your fortune with others instead of keeping it.

Siem Reap with Sophoan Rath - highly recommended
I was planning for a trip with friends to visit Siem Reap & Angkor Wat (Mar 26-28, 2013), and a friend recommended Sophoan as a tour guide. It turned out to be an excellent recommendation. Poan was very proactive and gave prompt replies to the numerous queries I had prior to the trip, and he recommended an itinerary which allowed us to see the most of Siem Reap and Angkor Wat within the very short period of 2 days. He even had comfortable transport arranged to bring us from Phnom Penh airport to Siem Reap. Throughout our short holiday there, we were very impressed with his vast knowledge on the history of Angkor Wat and Cambodian culture, and our needs were very well taken care of by him and the driver (sadly did not get to know his name). In the blistering hot weather, they made sure we did not have to worry about having no ice cold water, getting to the various landmarks in the really huge Angkor Wat complex or having to think about where to settle our daily meals. As a tour guide, he has exceeded our expectations; any requests to changes in the itinerary were prompty accomodated and we had truly enjoyed our time in Siem Reap. I look forward to visiting Cambodia again, and would very much like to have Poan as my Cambodian tour guide again.

Poan is the perfect guide.
My first trip to Cambodia was a few years ago and toured around the Siem Reap area and Poan was an amazing guide, the best I've ever had. He is genuinely friendly and is very professional. I've toured other areas of Cambodia on subsequent trips and again Poan made all the arrangements and we had a great time. He knowledge is so complete and adds many insights to the trip by explaining about Khmer history and culture.
I've had the opportunity to travel to many countries and had many guides throughout my years of traveling. Poan is the best there is! Richard C.

What have I been missing for all of these years?
Booked Angkor Wat Services through my local travel bureau in the U.S. I spent three exciting days with 'Poan' (my guide) visiting ancient temples, eating authentic and delicious Khmer food, climbed a mountain to see a gorgeous sunset, and watched the sun rise over one of the most beautiful temples on the planet not to mention, making new, lovely Cambodian friends and family who will be part of my life always. Have never had such a fulfilling trip and have returned often just to visit a particular temple that I missed the first time around. Honest and reliable and all packaged with that world famous Cambodian hospitality and generosity of spirit.

Former capital of the Khmer Kingdom, pre-dating Angkor, and is home to many spectacular 10th century temples. A brief interruption: the exception took place in 928AD when, for reasons that remain unclear, there was a disruption in the royal succession. King Jayavarman IV moved the capital 100 km from Angkor north to Koh Ker, where it remained for 20 years. When the capital returned to Angkor, it centered not at Phnom Bakheng as it had before, but further east at the new state-temple of Pre Rup (961AD)....
