Go further inside the centre of the citadel, wherein lies the iconic Temple of Bayon, with its standing towers of gigantic stone faces. Continue to Ta Prohm Temple, built in the late 12th century and left in its natural state. Shrouded in dense jungle with gigantic roots branches and leaves intertwined with the walls, roofs and terraces. It is an astonishing scene of nature and man-made architecture merging together.
