The Other Temples

After our first temple experience at Angkor Wat we thought by 9am it was time for a well earned breakfast at the "James Bond Cafe". Then, after a game of hide and seek with our tuk tuk driver we moved on to see 5 more temples, including the ones used in Indiana Jones and Lara Croft! The first was within Angkor Thom (not Uncle Tom as Kerry always thought) which was jam-packed of tourists and the odd kitten. On the way to the next one there was a police "check point" which consisted of each tuk tuk driver paying some notes into a secret book on the back of the police motorbike.
The third temple was mostly under restorations but having accidentally acquired a tour guide we found out that it was the oldest of all, around 1000 years old!
We finished the tour just as the rain started to pelt and took the sound of thunder as a sign for us to head back with our trusty tuk tuk driver.
We then spent the afternoon catching up on lost sleep, eating and generally hiding indoors from the thunderstorm. Guess we chose to come in the monsoon season!もっと詳しく
