The Forgotten Temple of Beng Melea
The Forgotten Temple of Beng Melea
While you have probably seen Angkor Wat and other temples in Siem Reap you might not know about Beng Melea. It is one of the largest temples in Siem Reap but, because the temple is far from the city center, much of it is still in ruins. Known as the Jungle Temple, visiting Beng Melea makes you feel more like an “explorer” than a “tourist”.
On this excursion you will leave Siem Reap at your preferred time (before 9am is recommended) and make your way to Damdek, the district where both Kompong Khleang and Beng Melea are located. You’ll sidetrack about 45km to Beng Melea and will spend up to 2 hours visiting this unique temple at your preferred pace.
From there we continue to the floating village where we will see the village where we work, visit a local home where Bridge of Life operates, and do a brief walking tour when water levels permit. We then head to the boat dock to take the boat through Kompong Khleang and out to the Tonle Sap. We will have the chance to see two other floating villages before returning to Kompong Khleang and heading home.
The cost of the Beng Melea & Kompong Khleang combined tour is $275 USD for up to 4 participants. There is a supplement of $25 USD per person after 4 participants. Please note this excludes your ticket to Beng Melea (the same ticket as Angkor Wat) and lunch (we can stop at a restaurant if you would like).
