Morning light cuts across the moat at Angkor Wat and the stone faces hold the day like quiet sentries. On this five-day loop from Siem Reap you step out of town and into landscape where carved stones and jungle trade stories: Bayon’s four-faced towers watch the road, Beng Mealea lets fig roots tug at lintels, and the seven-tier pyramid of Koh Ker sits like a remote crown on the plain.
