Koh Ker Review

It is 90 kilometers away from Siem Reap, which was once the capital of the Khmer Dynasty in the early 10th century, and is protected within a few kilometers, with dozens of monuments. After entering the scenic spot, there is a large area of woods, there is a red dirt road leading tourists to various attractions, reminding me of the "Wild Oz" guide Dorothy to the yellow brick road of Emerald City. We only have enough time to see the largest monument, Prasat Thom, the tower gate in front of the big tower temple and other buildings were badly damaged, only broken tiles, and inside is a 7-story pyramid building more than 30 meters high. The stone steps on the front of the tower can not be climbed, and when repairs are carried out on the side, tourists can climb to the top, and the building on the top of the tower basically collapsed, as an observation deck is not bad. Because it is a high-rise building on the flat ground, the surrounding vegetation is dense, the 360-degree panoramic view, the blue sky and white clouds, the distant mountains and the forest are all panoramic.

高盖是一个城市的遗址，距离暹粒市区包车过去约3小时车程。由于这里还没有完全被开辟我旅游景区，所以遗址基本隐藏在森林之中。高盖最值得看的是一座高30多米的7层金字塔，虽然有些残损，但整体结构还基本是完整的。据我们的包车司机说，高盖遗址大约有6、70处建筑遗址，不久会逐步整修开发，现在已经被列入联合国教科文组织暂定世界遗产名录。

贡开遗址群时间与吴哥重叠，当初迦耶跋摩四世（928～942年在位）篡权之后，将国都由吴哥迁移于此，他儿子继位后，又重新将国都迁回吴哥。这边最有看头的就是 Prasat Thnom 金字塔，这座金字塔建筑完全不同于所有吴哥的其他寺庙建筑，反而比较像玛雅的金字塔遗迹。

雨林探古寺，挥汗登绝顶。夕阳下，牛群漫步林间，仿佛梦回十世纪。

高盖是一个古城的遗址，这里其实有不少古建筑遗迹。最具标志性的就是一座金字塔类型的古建筑。游玩暹粒的吴哥窟时高盖是个很值得一看的景点。
