Second day at Angkor Wat

30.01.2017

We took a smaller loop today, with Ta Prohm and Sra Srang on the agenda. Ta Prohm is the "Tomb Raider" temple, I guess because some of the scenes from the movie were shot here. The trees have overgrown the temple and it's quite shady. It would be peaceful if it wasn't Chinese New Year, probably.

In the morning, we stopped at Ta Keo, one of the oldest temples around, and very plain. It was being restored by China and we all know how that will turn out. It will all be brand new and look completely different when they're done with it.

I think we went to another charity restaurant that's part of the Friends chain for a three course set menu that night, but I can't be sure, there's no photos. It was great and we spent way too much money on cocktails.
