What an amazing walk! We happily climbed the 1400 meters from the information center to the top of the Kbal Spean river through a lovely track set in the middle of the luxurious and varied vegetation that covers Kulen mountain an hour away from Angkor. This place is known as the river of the 1000 lingas and the riverbanks and stones bear stunning carvings of figures, animals and gods that date back from the 11th Century. The aim was to bless and purify the water in order to fertilize the downstream rice fields of Cambodia.
