    Exploring the ancient temples was a highlight for our group, especially when we caught the sunrise illuminating the stunning stone carvings. We stayed in a charming boutique hotel that offered a cozy respite after long days of immersing ourselves in local culture. However, a couple of the meals felt a bit repetitive, and we wished for more variety in our dining experiences.
