The Gate itself is crowned with four large faces facing in the cardinal directions.
Lunch is Khmer style in a local restaurant in the forest. Enjoy a spread of great local food followed by a nap lazing in a hammock, or explore to see the traditional way of life and say hello to the Cambodians dining there.
After lunch we visit the beautiful Ta Prohm (Tomb Raider) temple which was made famous by Angelina Jolie. Feel like one of the early explorers as you visit this temple which has been left to be reclaimed by the jungle.
