Holyweek Adventure - Sunset at Bakeng Mountain




After touring 4 temples, we were told that we will be having a little hiking activity for the sunset at Bakeng Mountain. You have 2 options on how to go to the top, either by foot or by elephant (which is a bit costly), so we took the harder part - by foot. It took us about 15 minutes of trekking before we reached the top but what we don't know is that we still have to go on top of a somewhat tower to see the view properly. The way to the top of the tower is a bit scary coz the steps are very small and very steep! Upon reaching the top, you would see a 360 view of the whole complex. You can see Ankor Wat here perfectly! Unfortunately, we didn't see the sunset properly because of rain clouds so we just enjoy it by taking a lot of pictures.

Note: This is also the site where Lara Croft used her powerful telescope to take a peek at what's happening in one of the temples.
