Beng Melea is almost the size of Angkor Wat and is one of the largest ensembles build during the Khmer Kingdom. It is enclosed by a huge moat of 1200m x 900m and the temple presents in places a veritable chaos of fallen debris beside areas that remain absolutely intact - but everywhere vegetation reigns as master. During our visit we will have to walk over ruins and climb over stones and scultures to fully explore this site. The decoration of Beng Malea is simple and animated only in certain areas but you can find several bas-reliefs showing scenes from the Khmer Mythology.
