Banteay Srei, Angkor area, Cambodia

This temple dedicated to Shiva is known as the ‘Lady Temple’ and loved for its intricate pinkish sandstone carvings. The surroundings of this temple offer a quieter experience than Angkor Wat thanks to its more remote location, with picnic spots along the path around the temple. You can spot water buffalo grazing in the surrounding marshland or catch the sound of traditional Cambodian music drifting through the trees.
