Dawn on the temple plain arrives like a slow exhale: dust lifts from the red earth, and a line of cyclists rolls through a grove of rain trees toward crumbling stone. The Half-Day Bike Tour in Angkor Park threads quieter lanes between iconic faces and lesser-known ruins — Preah Khan’s enveloping banyans, the elevated view across Baray Jayataka, and a less-trafficked angle on Bayon that invites a longer look.
