We also inspected at close quarters the incredible Spean Praptos at Kompong Kdei and the eight smaller Angkorean bridges on the main road between Kompong Kdei and Siem Reap, where the Cambodian government have deliberately constructed the main highway to avoid destroying these historical treasures.
One hidden gem that came as a surprise were the seven lintels I came across at Wat Sleng, a few kilometers outside Kompong Thom town-centre, which my trusty pal Sokhom took me to.
