Program

Day 1:
UBON RACHATANI – SURIN (Lunch, Dinner)
Departure for a morning excursion of Ubol Rachathani's most famous temples. We begin with Wat Pra That Nong Bua, displaying a peculiar architectural style reminiscent of Hindu temples in Bodhgaya, India.
The second stop on the itinerary is Wat Sa Kampaeng Yai, an Hindu temple rarely visited by tourists. While most of the lintels are in bad shape, with heavily worn details and heads missing on some statues, there are still some beautiful stone carvings made by anonymous Khmer artists over a thousand years ago.
Lunch in a typical restaurant.
Next stop is Prasat Si Korapum, a picturesque Khmer temple surrounded by overgrown vegetation and located by a small lake. This is a great spot for taking pictures and have a rest.
Arrival in Surin and transfer to the hotel.
Dinner at the hotel.

Day 2:
SURIN – BURIRAM (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner)
Departure for Leng Hin Tat, an unique place rarely seen by tourists. Surrounded by a thick forest, this is a very old site, used to cut the stones to build the temples in the area. Long square slabs of sand stone are still visible on the ground, a rare insight into a thousands years old construction site.
The journey continues to the ruins of Prasat Muang Tam, an Hindu temple in remarkably good conditions.
Lunch in a typical restaurant.
Departure for Phanom Rung Historical Park, a large Khmer complex set on the rim of an extinct volcano. The most famous element of the temple is a decorative lintel placed above the eastern entrance known as Thap Lang Narai. Stolen in the 60's, it resurfaced at the Art Institute of Chicago in 1988 and after long negotiations it was returned to Thailand and placed here.
Next stop before reaching Buriram is Wat Khok Ngiu, a small Khmer temple built with yellowish sandstone.
Arrival in Surin and transfer to the hotel.
Dinner at the hotel.

Day 3:
BURIRAM – KORAT (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner)
Departure to reach Phimai, an impressive 11th century temple which was once part of the Khmer empire. Very large in size (the outer enclosure measures 1020 x 580 meters), it is definitely at the same level with the much more celebrated Angkor Wat complex.
Lunch in a typical restaurant.
Transfer to Baan Prasat, an important archaeological site set up as an outdoor museum. Findings indicate that the area was inhabited since pre-historical times. Communities of the Dvaravati and Khmer periods thrived here about as early as 3000 years ago.
Next stop is Ban Hin Panom Wan, an ancient Khmer sanctuary located in a tranquil spot near Korat.
The complex sprawls beside a forest and includes some large lotus ponds, creating a serene atmosphere, suitable for a rest during the journey to Korat.
Arrival in Korat and transfer to the hotel.
Dinner at the hotel.

Day 4:
KORAT - BANGKOK (Breakfast, Lunch)
Departure to reach Wat Non Khum, a majestic site famous for its unquestionable beauty. A large, tall and imposing modern Thai temple, this complex is surrounded by ponds where white and black swans live undisturbed. This place is incredibly photogenic and well worth a visit.
Lunch in a typical restaurant.
Arrival in Bangkok and transfer to the hotel/airport.
