Banteay Samre Temple - Pre Rup - Angkor - Siem Reap - Cambodia 16/18
Siem Reap (Khmer: ក្រុងសៀមរាប) is the capital city of Siem Reap Province in northwestern Cambodia. It is a popular resort town and a gateway to the Angkor region.
Siem Reap has colonial and Chinese-style architecture in the Old French Quarter, and around the Old Market. In the city, there are museums, traditional Apsara dance performances, a Cambodian cultural village, souvenir and handicraft shops, silk farms, rice-paddies in the countryside, fishing villages and a bird sanctuary near the Tonle Sap Lake, and a vibrant, cosmopolitan drinking and dining scene.
Siem Reap today—being a popular tourist destination—has a large number of hotels, resorts, restaurants and businesses closely related to tourism. This is much owed to its proximity to the Angkor temples, the most popular tourist attraction in Cambodia.
Angkor Wat (Wat temple) is the central feature of the Angkor UNESCO World Heritage Site containing the magnificent remains of the Khmer civilization. Angkor Wat's rising series of five towers culminates in an impressive central tower that symbolizes mythical Mount Meru. Thousands of feet of wall space are covered with intricate carving depicting scenes from Hindu mythology. The most important are the Carved Bas reliefs of the Hindu narratives. They tell a story about gods fighting demons in order to reclaim order which can only be achieved by recovering the elixir of life known as amrita. The gods and demons must work together to release it and then battle to attain it.
Angkor Thom is an inner royal city built by Jayavarman VII, the Empire's famed 'Warrior King', at the end of the 12th century and is renowned for its temples, in particular the Bayon. Other notable sites are Baphuon, Phimeanakas, The Terrace of the Elephants and The Terrace of the Leper King. The city can be accessed through 5 city gates, one on each cardinal point and the Victory Gate on the eastern wall.
A number of significant temples are dotted around Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom within the Angkor Archaeological Park, including Ta Prohm, Preah Khan, Banteay Kdei, Phnom Bakheng, Ta Keo, Ta Som, East Mebon, Pre Rup and Neak Pean. These temples may be visited along the grand circuit or the small circuit routes. Other sites are the Roluos group of temples located to the east of Siem Reap.
Banteay Samre Temple - Siem Reap, Cambodia
WestIslandKev filmed: Feb 16, 2015 - Siem Reap, Cambodia.
I rented a tuk tuk from Siem Reap to Prasat Banteay Srei Temple about 35 km , taking between 60 - 90 minutes, each way. On the return trip we stopped at Banteay Samre.
Large, comparatively flat temple displaying distinctively Angkor Wat-style architecture and artistry. The temple underwent extensive restoration this century by archaeologists using the anastylosis method. Banteay Samre was constructed around the same time as Angkor Wat. The style of the towers and balustrades bear strong resemblance to the towers of Angkor Wat and even more so to Khmer temple of Phimai in Thailand. Many of the carvings are in excellent condition. Banteay Samre is a bit off the Grand Circuit, near the southeast corner of the East Baray. The trip there is a nice little 3km road excursion through villages and paddies. Combine a visit to Banteay Srey with a stop at Banteay Samre on the way back.
The name Samre refers to an ethnic group of mountain people, who inhabited the regions at the base of Phnom Kulen and were probably related to the Khmers. No inscription has been found for this temple, but the style of most of the architecture is of the classic art of the middle period similar to Angkor Wat. The monument most likely dates from the same period, or, perhaps, slightly later, although there are additions attributed to the Bayon style.

Banteay Samre – Exploring This Khmer Temple in Siem Reap Cambodia
I wonder why Banteay Samre is so underrated among the Khmer temples of Siem Reap? Walking into the inner enclosure I find it is in a good state, lot better than some of the ruined temples within Angkor complex.

Exploring Banteay Srei at the Temples of Angkor (Phnom Dei), Siem Reap Province, Cambodia
In this travel video we take a long tuk-tuk journey to explore Banteay Srei at the Temples of Angkor, Siem Reap Province, Cambodia nearby the hill of Phnom Dei. Waking up early at 4:40 am we were hopeful we'd be one of the first people to arrive to the temple before it became flooded with tourists. We were pleasantly shocked (more like ecstatic) over the fact we were indeed the first to arrive! This temple is one of the more elaborate and decorative and was a complex we didn't want to share with lots of other tourists all at the same time. Having the chance to explore by ourselves allowed us to capture things we never would have had we came later. For example, we were given access to a VIP tour of normally gated off areas. All in all, this was easily one of our favorite temples.

Walking up early in the morning certainly has its advantages. We are the first people to arrive at this temple Banteay Srei.
This is one of the temples we've been most excited to visit and we are officially the first ones here.
Here we are inside the temple. This happens to be a Hindu temple and it is dedicated to the God Shiva.
Most of the temples of Angkor were commissioned by powerful Kings but this temple in particular was not. It was commissioned by a Brahman, which makes it quite unique.
Because we came here early we got a VIP tour. Normally these areas are gated off as you can see by the white perimeter here and the rope. Look at where we are - Yeah!
The advantages of being the first on site can't be underestimated. I mean, anything to avoid those package tourists is a good idea.
There are many temples to choose from but this one in particular Banteay Srei is considered to be the crown jewel of Angkorian art because it has some of the most exquisite and intricate carvings.
This temple is located very far away from Siem Reap. We had to travel over an hour in a tuk-tuk and I slept most of the way but I hear it was a very scenic journey. Yes?
Along the way we passed a lot of rural villages. We saw locals out doing various kinds of activities early in the morning - some farming related and some business. We saw bikes packed to the total brim full of stuff. We saw a lot of different things and it was just a really cool trip to get out here.
This is part of our Travel in Cambodia series. We're making a series of videos showcasing Khmer / Cambodian culture, arts, food, religion and people.

Banteay Samre Temple | Siem Reap | Cambodia | Angkor Tour
Welcome to Cambodia
---------------------------------------------
Banteay Samre is a temple at Angkor, Cambodia, located 400 metres to the east of the East Baray. Built during the reign of Suryavarman II and Yasovarman II in the early 12th century, it is a Hindu temple in the Angkor Wat style.
Named after the Samre, an ancient people of Indochina, the temple uses the same materials as the Banteay Srei.
Banteay Samre was excellently restored by Maurice Glaize from 1936 until 1944. The design of its single ogival tower is immediately recognizable as Angkor Wat style along with other temples in the region such as Thommanon and Chau Say Tevoda. Due to this temple's similarity to some monuments of north-east Thailand, it has the appearance of a compact Phimai. While there are no inscriptions describing its foundation, it seems likely to have been built by a high official of the court during the reign of King Suryavarman II.

Banteay Srei, Siem Reap, Cambodia / Kambodża
Banteay Srei or Banteay Srey (Khmer: ប្រាសាទបន្ទាយស្រី) is a 10th century Cambodian temple dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva. Located in the area of Angkor in Cambodia. It lies near the hill of Phnom Dei, 25 km (16 mi) north-east of the main group of temples that once belonged to the medieval capitals of Yasodharapura and Angkor Thom. Banteay Srei is built largely of red sandstone, a medium that lends itself to the elaborate decorative wall carvings which are still observable today. The buildings themselves are miniature in scale, unusually so when measured by the standards of Angkorian construction. These factors have made the temple extremely popular with tourists, and have led to its being widely praised as a precious gem, or the jewel of Khmer art.( )
Banteay Srei lub Banteay Srey to świątynia z X w. dedykowana bóstwom Hindu i Shiva. Położona jest ona w obszarze Angkor, Kambodża, niedaleko wzgórza Phnom Dei, 25 km na północny wschód od głównej grupy świątyń Angkor. Banteay Srei wybudowano z czerwonego piaskowca, do dzisiejszych czasów zachowały się bogate rzeźbienia ścian. Budynki są miniaturowe w porównaniu do standardów budowniczych Angkor. Wszystko to czyni tą świątynię wyjątkowo popularnym celem dla turystów.
