点评:We visited Phnom Kulen National Park as one of our final sightseeing destinations in Siem Reap. The park offers a rich blend of cultural heritage and natural beauty, making it a worthwhile day trip.
Highlights:
• River of a Thousand Lingas (Kbal Spean): A sacred riverbed adorned with intricate carvings of lingas and deities, reflecting the spiritual significance of the site.
• Preah Ang Thom: Home to Cambodia’s largest reclining Buddha statue, carved into a massive sandstone boulder, offering panoramic views of the surrounding forest.
• Phnom Kulen Waterfalls: Two main waterfalls provide a refreshing escape; the larger one is popular for swimming and picnicking.
Travel Tips:
• Footwear: Wear sturdy water shoes or sandals with good traction, especially if you plan to swim at the waterfalls. During our visit after rainfall, the riverbed was muddy, and a family member sustained a minor cut from a sharp rock, requiring several days of care.
• Clothing: Opt for light, quick-drying attire suitable for hiking and swimming. When visiting sacred sites like Preah Ang Thom, dress modestly by covering your shoulders and knees, and remove shoes and hats before entering.
• Hydration & Snacks: Bring plenty of water and some snacks, as amenities within the park are limited.
• Entrance Fee: The entrance fee is $20 per person, with no discounts for children. 
Along the journey, we enjoyed sampling local lychees and palm fruit drink and fruit, mangos from roadside vendors. Overall, Phnom Kulen offers a unique combination of history, culture, and natural beauty, making it a must-visit destination near Siem Reap.
翻译:我们参观了荔枝山国家公园,这是我们在暹粒的最后一个观光目的地。这座公园融合了丰富的文化遗产和自然美景,绝对值得一日游。
亮点:
• 千林伽河(Kbal Spean):神圣的河床,装饰着精美的林伽和神像雕刻,体现了该遗址的精神意义。
• 柏威夏寺(Preah Ang Thom):柬埔寨最大的卧佛像所在地,雕刻在一块巨大的砂岩巨石上,可欣赏周围森林的全景。
• 荔枝山瀑布:两座主要瀑布提供清爽的休闲场所;较大的瀑布是游泳和野餐的热门场所。
旅行小贴士:• 鞋子:穿着结实耐磨的水鞋或凉鞋,尤其是在瀑布游泳时。我们雨后到访时,河床泥泞不堪,一位家人被锋利的岩石轻微割伤,需要护理数日。
• 着装:选择轻便、速干的服装,适合徒步和游泳。参观像圣安通寺(Preah Ang Thom)这样的圣地时,请穿着朴素,遮住肩膀和膝盖,并在进入前脱鞋戴帽。
• 补水和零食:公园内的便利设施有限,请携带充足的水和一些零食。
• 门票:门票每人20美元,儿童无折扣。
沿途,我们品尝了当地的荔枝和棕榈果汁,以及路边摊贩出售的水果和芒果。总而言之,荔枝山将历史、文化和自然美景完美融合,是暹粒附近必游的景点之一。
