Take a day trip to Battambang from Siem Reap. See the famous roundabout, ride the Bamboo Train, visit the Hilltop Temple Lookout, Killing Field and Cave, watch the bats fly from the Bat Cave at dusk.
Start out in the morning from your accommodation in Siem Reap and travel by airconditioned car to Battambang, the rice bowl of Cambodia. Although travel time is two and half to three hours, pass through traditional villages and countryside.
Black Man Statue Roundabout. First stop on arrival is at the famous 'Black Man Statue' roundabout or locally known as 'Ta Dumbong Kva Nhoung Shrine' in the centre of Battambang. Learn the legend behind this Black Man and his Magic Stick.
Killing Field. Second stop, just 4kms to the north is Wat Somrong Knong Killing Field where it is estimated that around ten thousand people were executed in the Temple Grounds by Khmer Rouge. Wander around the beautifully designed Stupa monument that has interesting stories and information in English around the base.
Bamboo Train, Hanging Suspension Bridge, Peace Gallery. A Bamboo Train ride and a walk across the Hanging Suspension Bridge makes for a lighter part of the day before visiting The Peace Gallery. The Gallery is a space for reflection and learning about Cambodia's journey from war towards peace and reconciliation, presenting the country's complicated history while celebrating the work of Cambodian peacebuilders.
Enjoy a well deserved Lunch break.
Phnom Sampov Lookout, and Killing Caves. The sixth stop for the day is Phnom Sampov, or Mount Sampov. This hilltop area is worth a wander around to take in the impressive views of the countryside and city from the top, the temple complex and the numerous monkeys. Close by is one of the infamous Khmer Rouge Killing Caves, which is the next stop. Take the steps down into the cave and pay tribute at the monument that is in the cave with bony remains of some carefully preserved.
Bat Cave. The final stop, and highlight of the day is back down the hill to the famous Bat Cave to witness the cloud of bats flying from their cave at dusk, before heading back to Siem Reap.
