Pagodas and Handicrafts in Siem Reap                                                

We
visit the 19th century temple
of Wat Bo, one of
the most important pagodas in Siem Reap. Dating from the 19th
century, the interior of the main temple includes some of the finest religious
murals in Cambodia,
depicting the life of the Buddha. We continue to the Chantiers Ecole workshop
of Artisans d'Angkor, a handicrafts cooperative helping to revive the
artisan skills of the Angkor era. We learn
about different techniques, including lacquerware, stone carving and silk
painting and visit the impressive showroom.

We
then travel to Wat Athvea to visit an interesting fusion temple which
includes the impressive remains of an 12th century sandstone
structure and an attractive old pagoda. The original Angkor-era temple was used
as a training site for construction workers and is one of the only temples
facing west. It is possible to arrange a blessing ceremony for the success of
your trip in Cambodia.
