Tour description

In this 2 hours, we will visit Ta Phrom temple, the temple is referred to as the "Tomb Raider Temple " or the "Angelina Jolie Temple" due to its depiction in the film Lara Croft: Tomb Raider(2000).

The temple was built without mortar and, after it was abandoned, trees took root in the loosened stones.The trees growing out of the ruins and the jungle surroundings have made it one of the most popular temples with visitors to the area.It has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1992.
The "dinosaur of Ta Prohm"is a bas-relief in the Khmer Empire temple-monastery of Ta Prohm. Numerous reliefs of various animals are present in the temple; the "dinosaur" is one of its more ambiguous artworks. The relief first gained modern notoriety in the late 1990s when the lobe-like features running down the animal's back were compared to the back plates of stegosauriandinosaurs. The relief has since become a popular piece of "evidence" for the fringe belief that non-avian dinosaurs once coexisted with humans.
The sacred mysteries will be clarified by local guide!
