About the''Drunken Frog''in Phnom Phen

It was now time to Siem Reap to leave. For one reason, to which I can remember more, I wanted to go to Kompong Thom. Kompong Thom is half way to Phnom Phen, which is the capital of Cambodia. I could not buy a ticket to Kompong Thom. I have the full fare to pay in capital. Can not be helped.

met on the bus I turn to the brilliant guy who showed me the great guesthouse in Siem Reap. We both independently decided that we now have enough of Siem Reap. He went to Phnom Phen. He asked me what I wanted in the Kompong Thom. I said that it should be as near a temple. He probably thought that I'm stupid. He answered and like, "Whatever makes you happy."

I had doubts, and these enhanced now. When we arrived in Kompong Thom and I saw the city, the decision was clear. Kompong Thom looked like a rubbish dump. I stayed on the bus and we drove on.

After 5 hours we arrived in Phnom Phen. At first glance I was impressed not Phnom Penh. The German did again a good place and I went with him. So far I had no idea how Phnom Phen. He is in Phom Phen no river but a lake in the center. Along the shore there are some cool and cheap guesthouses.

The guest house "Number 9", we wanted to go in was full. So we went to the board "Drunken Frog" next door. It is virtually built into the lake. We went on wobbly boards, but everything was ok.

The rooms at the "Drunken Frog" was easy, but for a night in order. The staff of Drunken Frog "were just a little greedy. First they wanted to sell grass, which we refused. Then they wanted to make us drunk. I declined again. Last meal, we should at least there. We both decided the next day another guest house to search.

Phnom Phen is quite interesting. It's totally different than I had expected. The guest house was at the end of a dark street, as one knows from horror movies. The whole area looked a bit dodgy. I felt a bit like a tourist in New York, who has landed some reason in Harlem. But, unless you're a virgin with a bucket of gold in his hand here at night rumlauft, It is not that bad.

The streets were narrow and winding. What is the main street is called elsewhere, here is maybe 2 feet wide. I liked this We went from just a little something to eat. As I said, Phnom Penh was very different than I thought. I liked it.

Banteay Srei and Kbal Spean

Since I liked the two days in Angkor Wat good, decided I now look at the other Sehswürdikeiten in the area. In particular, I wanted to go to Banteay Srei. My driver picked me up at 9 clock in the morning from my accommodation in Siem Reap. 50 km with the tuk-tuk are wide. The heat was, despite the early time, already brutal. The trip took much longer than an hour. We drove through rural areas in Cambodia - poor villages with few houses made of stone.

Cambodia is in some ways a strange land. It is a very poor country. But there are schools everywhere, and, as the Red Cross says a good health system. Along the road I saw many houses, but no real houses. No one looks as if he would starve. After our standards, Cambodia is probably poor, but you get the feeling that it is not the man is so bad. The people give the impression that they are happy, maybe even happy.

It's a surprise when suddenly in the middle of a poor neighborhood is a huge visitor center. You must pay for parking here even. At least 20 buses were already there. Where are all the well?

I went out and had almost a shock. The visitor center was really nice. The carvings and works of art are better than the ones I've seen in the temple of Angkor Wat.

Banteay Srei is quite small. Nevertheless, crowds of tourists here. In a large system such as Angkor Wat hardly notice it. But here annoy many people. Legions of mostly Asian tourists are being chased through Banteay Srei. It looks like all have one thing in mind: You want as many photos of himself with the sights in the background. It is hard to describe how annoying it is.

I soon tired and had more left. Banteay Srei is probably very interesting, but you have to come in the late afternoon when the Asian visitors are gone. But unfortunately not fit into my schedule. As

I went back to the Tuk Tuk was my driver away. I looked for him for a while. Then I gave up and just waited. Eventually, he came and showed me the photos he has made. Since I had encouraged him to take pictures, I could not complain now.

Our next destination was Kbal Spean. We arrived shortly after noon. It was very hot. The real interest in Kbal Spean are some carvings in a river bed. You have to go to Kbal Spean about 1500 meters on foot. That does not sound after such a lot, but it is uphill. I did not know before.

the beginning of the road to Kbal Spean is simple. After that, the way bad and getting steeper. I looked forward to the refreshed Waterfall. Without that prospect, I would have declined. I fantasized of the river with the cool water. The heat was murderous. The road, however, was interesting. The higher I got, the better was the view over the canopy of the jungle. The many tourists on the way bothered me, however.

Kbal Spean is nothing spectacular. It is really just a creek. The carvings are rubbish, but it is waiting for a cool, refreshing waterfall. With luck, you have to do not share with too many tourists.

The return journey was very long. We stopped at another place of interest. Not special. I was ready. I spent more than enough time in Siem Reap. It is time to discover the real Cambodia!

Angkor Wat - Day 2: Phrea Khan, Neak Pean, Ta Som, Pre rap and other

When I woke up in the morning, the sky was blue stahlend. The temperature was as high as in the days before. The humidity was much lower. Thus, the heat was less intense.

I felt much better and the first time in three days I was well on it. After a quick Frühstück, machte ich mich für eine extreme Tempeltour fertig. Ich bestellte über das Gästehaus den selben Tuk-Tuk-Fahrer wie am Tag zuvor. Ich war mit dem Typ recht zufrieden.
10 Minuten später war ich abfahrbereit.

Der erste Halt des Tages war am Osttor der Bayon Tempelanlage. Am Vortag war ich dort schon am Nachmittag. Da aber nun die Sonne schien, war der Unterschied groß. Die Photos, die ich heute machte, habe ich auch für dem Beitrag von gestern verwendet. Das Tor ist wirklich spektakulär.

Der nächste Stopp war in Phrea Khan. Es ist die alte Universität. Phrea Khan ist sehr  interessant: An vielen Stellen ein Labyrinth - eng und verwinkelt. Die Kunstobjekte sind pretty impressive. Ruin the whole look just great. Phrea Kan is probably not as photogenic as Ta Prohm, but it has that certain something. Without doubt, started the day well.

Phrea Khan, the old university

We drove to Neak Pean. Neak Pean is a bit unusual. It's pretty small. There is no temple, but a cemetery. It is reminiscent of a large fountain. The center is the pelvis with small towers. On one side is an interesting horse statue. In Neak Pean, there are probably mainly ritual washing. Neak Pean is ok, but nothing really special. It is calm. A small wind breeze would be nice been. It was getting unbearably hot.

Neak Pean

Next we drove to a place to which I am particularly pleased: Ta Som. The temple is about a smaller version of Bayon. What they say at least. Ta Som is very picturesque. I like the colors and frescoes of Ta Som. It is a place of silence and the aura of a sacred place was obtained.

Ta Som

Next stop was East Mebon. The place is guarded at each corner of an elephant statue. I liked this temple the East Mebon is not necessarily a beauty.

My last stop of the day was pre rap. I was not quite clear what would happen here. It was a positive surprise. Pre rap is huge and threatening. From the top you have a great view. Pre rap is probably no beauty in the classical sense. I think in all these holes in the wall once was a fresco. At some points in Pre rap, one can see that it had once been a magnificent place.

Pre Rap

As the weather was very good today, I decided again to look at Angkor. I wanted to find out whether I was disappointed the day before just because of the high expectations Sun It had to be a reason why Angkor is famous. I wanted to at least take some good photos. In fact, in sunlight it all looked a bit better. Angkor I liked but again not so special, which I am not very surprised, of course.

Angkor Wat - Day 1: Prices, Angkor, Bayon, Ta Keo and Ta Prohm

Another night with fever in Siem Reap. The weather was not good. I did not care. It was time to do something. Would take such a tuk-tuk to Angkor Wat.

We stopped for the first time at the ticket office. Someone had told me that it would be cheaper in the national currency of Cambodia, Riel to pay. After buying the ticket to Angkor Wat after I counted and came to the conclusion that it would have been cheaper in dollars. The stupid tour guide on the Thai border had told us nothing but junk. What did she like when she tells people things like that?

It was too late. I had bought a three-day ticket to Angkor Wat for $ 40. This is in a country where there are notes for 0.3 cents, not just a little money. Translated into Cambodian Riel It was even more.

from the ticket sales it is not far to the temples. I could already see from here that many temples were being renovated. I'm not happy. Angkor Wat has a great reputation. It is one of the great modern wonders of the world. had hoped Well, Angkor Wat was at first not quite as impressive as I do.

Angkor Wat is huge, which is beyond question. But is impressive? I mean, not necessarily. In photos it looks even better than in reality. I went inside. My feeling was reinforced even more. Angkor Wat is probably the most disappointing, that was on my list of things that I wanted to see before I die. Angkor Wat is hereby removed from this list - and not only because I have seen it.

Angkor Wat is not even ugly. I can imagine that maybe it was an impressive place. It should be a sacred place. I could not feel it. Angkor Wat felt dead.

I know I look pretty thick in the photo. But it is the only thing I could point out in this picture.

We stopped at the Bayon . It is the second most popular temple in the Angkor universe. It started promising. You drive across a narrow bridge and through a narrow, natural gate, which just wide enough for one car.

Bayon is famous for its towers, which consist of four faces. There are many of these things, but you can not see the faces. Actually I should say a lot more crass: A heap of rubble was my first thought.

Bayon

now I had seen the two main attractions. Until now, Angkor Wat was one disappointment. From Bayon I walked on to two other temples. This impressed me even more little. I was so angry that I had almost overlooked the elephant terrace. That was pretty cool.

My tuk-tuk driver looked at me and remarked I was not happy. We continued and things got much better. The not so impressive on paper, Ta Keo I liked. I think at least that it means: The card is the next logical place to Baphuon.

It was a tall, pyramid-shaped temple with an incredibly narrow and steep stairs. A Japanese man, whom I met here, got scared after four stages and was looking for an easier ascent. A samurai with vertigo. Funny.

Japanese are afraid of heights

I went up and suddenly felt good. This temple was not pretty. But he has retained something else: a soul. This is much more important than the look. In the center was a small shrine, which was guarded by a small boy. He was very funny and gave me a brief explanation on how Buddha proves honor. These are the things that I expect in Angkor Wat had.

It was even better. The next stop was Ta Prohm. Here I had the first time the feeling that I get to see for my money was. In Ta Prohm changed my attitude to Angkor Wat. Here, I realized that I will use my 3-day pass completely.

Ta Prohm, a beauty

Ta Prohm is so beautiful that you can never describe it. Instead of clearing the jungle, they have in here are simply left. Even in the temple grow magnificent trees. They grow on walls and buildings. Despite all the tourists, the place was quiet. I loved to be here. Even the sun shone for the first time (for about 30 seconds) and in the soft morning light everything looked much more beautiful.
