We set off early on this full day trip to Phnom Kulen National Park. It is located approximately 54km north of Siem Reap town and it was the source of sandstone to build temples during the Angkor period. When driving up the steep hills, we will see the most beautiful landscape imaginable.

Once arriving at Kulen Mountain National Park our first stop is Preah Ang Thom to visit the famous historical Reclining Buddha on the top of Preah Ang Thom Temple, also famous for its appearance in Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001). This 16th-century giant Reclining Buddha is truly a sight to behold, measuring up to 8m. The statue was carved into a huge sandstone.

Next we will stop at a good place to have lunch at one of the local restaurant huts overlooking the river and waterfalls. After lunch we will visit to the famous 1000 Lingas river bed carvings. There are many figures of Lingas and Yoni and other carved Hindu Gods into the rocks of the riverbed.

We will wind down this tour with a cooling swim in the pools of the Kulen Waterfalls. The Kulen Waterfalls are divided into two parts and are truly elegant and breathtaking.
