In this grand finale of our Cambodia travel series, we journey from the sacred heights of Phnom Kulen National Park down into the ancient walled city of Angkor Thom. Our day trip begins at Phnom Kulen mountain, where we hike to the legendary River of a Thousand Lingas, carved directly into the riverbed. Along the way, we explore a quiet forest shrine and a natural blue artesian spring before ascending to Kulen Pagoda to marvel at a massive Reclining Buddha sculpted out of solid sandstone. We finish our mountain trek with a refreshing swim under the sacred blessings of Kulen Waterfall. Next, we cross the iconic South Gate of Angkor Thom to enter the mesmerizing world of Bayon Temple, world-famous for its architectural layers and 216 giant smiling stone faces.
