Five days of the program were spent in

traveled via van to Siem Reap on Friday,
July 18th and returned on Wednesday,
July 23rd. The ASK Program employed a
licensed guide for three days of
touring. Days typically began early in
the morning with a break for lunch
before resuming touring until evening or
late afternoon. There were also two
presentations given by an expert
archeologist, Ven Sophorn. Participants
were not afforded much free time during
the week in Siem Reap because of the
intense tour schedule. In their free
time, however, participants had the
option to visit additional temples or
sights in Siem Reap. One day was allowed
for visiting the Angkor National Museum
and free time. Accommodation in Siem
Reap was at the Menbora Hotel. The
location was moderately priced and
located centrally. |
