The day we went out to Ko Ker and Beng Melea was the day we were supposed to be at Angkor Wat but we woke up to a downpour. These temples were a couple hours drive outside of Siem Reap. Seeing them in the rain really was magical. We were the only people at most of the temples and could climb anywhere. These 1,000 year old Buddhist temples haven't been fully restored and aren't considered “World Heritage Sites”. I actually enjoyed Ko Ker more than Angkor Wat because it was a smaller, more understandable scale and we had full access to the place.
