During the Khmer period, large parts of Thailand were conquered by the Angkor empire. Phimai was directly connected by
road with the Angkor capital. Prasat Hin Phimai was built at the beginning of the 12th century when the Khmer empire
had its glory period. The monument is of great historic and esthetic importance, it became the example and prototype
for the later built and famous Angkor Wat in Cambodia. You will have ample time to see all of this complex and the

ground with hundreds of aerial roots anchoring it into the ground. Overnight stay in Nakhon Ratchasima.
