The massive trees growing among the ruins are a sight to behold. We went in the afternoon when it was not too crowded. With our ticket for 3 days to visit the temples, we had plenty of time to have a leisurely walk in the temples. Our private tour guide was very good in showing us the highlights of the... More

This temple is amazing. The trees growing through the walls add to its unique charm and around every turn there is another incredible sight. Can really see why it was chosen for Tomb Raider.

Minus all the tourists, this is an amazing temple which I think can be serene after tourists have left. The ancient trees with their roots hang over and under and around walls and roofs, makes this temple probably more beautiful now than it was when it was being used? Trees as a work of art. If you can avoid it... More

Basically you'll find alot of doors, it's doors after doors after doors, then there's an altar in the middle and same time you will feel you're surround with good energy even it's May and it's dry season.

Ta Prohm is really quite a sight but my experience was hampered by the hordes of tourists that came in by mid morning. Unlike Angkor Wat that is rather spacious, Ta Prohm is made up of narrow corridors and walkways, so you have to elbow your way through crowds. It was hard to get a good shot as there always... More

Not as impressive as Angkor Wat but worth a visit as it is very different, very long walks to each temple, tuk tuk is advisable or tour bus.

Ask your guide about the hidden dinosaur! We had Dat (pronounced Date). He was very good. Our hotel set it up, he's part of the certified guides group there.

The place looked enchanted. It was so mesmerizing. Looking it the massive trees growing right smack on the temple walls makes you think of the history that has happened as this temple was being eaten alive by the jungle. I liked it even more than the great Angkor Wat. Photos cannot justify the amazing things you can see here.

I love how the jungle mixed with the temples. It shows uniqueness and beauty to the ruins. This is where the Tomb Raider movie was filmed. Also, the reason why I'm very eager and excited to see this place.
