Travel to the lost temple of Beng Mealea, the titanic of temples, a slumbering giant lost for centuries in the forests of Cambodia. It is the most accessible of Angkor's lost temples. We then head into the bush to the remote Angkor capital of Koh Ker. The history of Cambodia is riven with dynastic spats and political intrigue and one of the most memorable came in the 10th century when Jayavarman IV (928-942) fell out with his family, stormed off to the northwest and established the rival capital of Koh Ker. Next, drive north to the remote temple of Preah Vihear. The road snakes up the mountain, and is very steep in places, eventually emerging at the second enclosure of this 'King of the Mountain' temple. Set on the Dangrek Mountains, Preah Vihear towers hundreds of metres above lowland Cambodia offering breath-taking views. The foundation stones of the temple stretch to the edge of the cliff as it plunges precipitously away to the plains of Preah Vihear province below.
