Top 10 in Can't Miss Attractions

Bakken Mountain is also known as the Three Sacred Mountains of Angkor along with Lichee Mountain and Boke Mountain. The Bakken Temple on the mountain is a temple built by Jess in the center of the capital. Using the natural hills about 60 meters high, I built a steep pilgrimage road. After a little visit to the pilgrimage site, I can see the platform-like plaza, while the Bakken Temple is above the square. It is worth noting that the estimate on the hillside is demanding clothing. The clothes can't be strapless, the skirts have to go over the knees, because the skirts worn by the little friends are not blocked, the wits are ice sleeves. On the knee, the management thought that it was acceptable to let us go. More importantly, if you want to see the sunset on the Bakken Mountain, you must climb to the top. If you don't give it to the top at 17:30 every day, the administrator will pull the rope and not enter. In addition, even if you come up before 17:30, you don't necessarily have to climb to the top, because only 300 places can watch the sunrise on the top of Bakken every day. After the summit, the management will issue the listing and the listing will be pulled up. rope. Therefore, if you want to watch the sunset on the Bakken Mountain, you will have to go up the mountain at 16:00. Unfortunately, we climbed to the top and waited for a long time to wait for the sunset, but waited for a sudden heavy rain. This is a regrettable point of the trip to Siem Reap. We could not see the sunset on the Bakken Mountain.

All the way to the Bakken Mountain, panting up the steep slopes, the Bakken Temple is full of people, already filled with tourists waiting for the sunset. Find a step to sit down, blowing the wind, watching the sky darken a little, the sunset of the red dragonfly hidden in the sky. Its a pity that you dont see the beautiful morning glow. The sunset in the dry season is lacking in the sky, but its still not as good as those on the postcards. The most unique experience in Bakken Mountain is to ride an elephant. Ride like 20 dollars/person on the mountain, 15 dollars/person down the mountain, most people choose to ride like a mountain, causing the elephants at the foot of the mountain to be in short supply. We are doing the opposite. We have reserved the elephant in advance at the foot of the mountain and watched the sunset. Its very pleasant to ride the elephant down the mountain. The elephant is very clever, and the cockroach is going to touch its nose, soft, very moist, super touch, and can't bear to let go. Like a wooden saddle on the back, you can sit 2-3 people, far less stable than you think, especially when the elephant moves around, like the saddle followed by a bump, it is very exciting, Candy scares his face green. I clung to the camera like a saddle and completely ignored the call for photography. The road is very narrow, in the quiet jungle, the leaves smashed from the cheeks, like a bell, as if passing through the millennium and returning to the kingdom of Angkor in the heyday... Angkors trip, most miss Its this journey of elephants.
