The journey to the mountain takes approximately 1.5 hours, offering scenic views of the Cambodian countryside along the way.

Preah Ang Thom pagoda
Preah Ang Thom is an 8 meters (26 ft) tall statue of the reclining Buddh reaching nirvana. The statue is carved into a huge natural sandstone boulder to which a modern staircase has been added along with a shelter over the Buddha. It is a very sacred and special site for all Cambodians and there are always patrons visiting the site and at times becoming quite busy.

5.00Tann Sopheap is a very kind, polite, and most importantly, professional tourist guide. He arranged the tour perfectly for us. We saw two more temples far from the city. One of the temple was beautiful with its well preserved carvings and inscriptions. The other one was impressive because it remains how it was when people found it in the first place. No restoration. Every building was clad in green with trees as their guardians. They are both beautiful and impressive. The best thing is there was few people coming. So the whole trip was peaceful and quiet. We can appreciate everything in slow fashion. No rush at all. The waterfall and one thousand linga river are impressive as well. Worthy to visit! Highly recommended!
Wonderful day out in the national park with tour guide Tann

5.00Wonderful tour with guide Tann and our driver Pan. We went to the most beautiful look out point, reclining Buddha and 1000 linga, where we got some fantastic pics of the area. Kulen waterfall was flowing strongly due to the recent rains which also made for some good pictures as well as the option to swim and cool down. Tann was very knowledgable, not only of the area but also shared information on Cambodia in general. Stopped for a great lunch to end off this wonderful enjoyable day. Thank you.
Superb!!!
