Sunrise Spiritual and Wellness Morning (15km Cycling)An incredible way to start a day - a spectacular sunrise, a sacred blessing and an alfresco breakfast in a Buddhist temple! Wake before dawn and set off to the stunning Angkor Wat. While the crowds are flocking towards the front entrance, we'll head to the quieter back entrance.

We'll then hop on bicycles for the scenic cycle along the ancient city walls to a hidden pagoda. Here we can immerse ourselves in Cambodia's spiritual culture by meditating and chatting with the monks. After changing into a sarong we'll receive a sacred water blessing, a tradition as ancient as the temples themselves. While the monks chant, blessed water will slowly be poured on our heads to wish us good luck.By now, we'll have worked up an appetite!
