Do you have the Dawn Rooney book? Angkor: A Guide to Cambodia's Wondrous Temples
As you'll see from the book, there are many, many temples to select from. Also, don't forget that if you saw the "main" temples, that there are many "minor" temples close in that are well worth a visit.

lol, yes, I do love that book. Indeed, I have a copy of the first edition, published in 1994, when going to Cambodia was still a dream. We carried the latest edition with us when we visited in 2001 - though we had virtually memorized the book before we went! I think it is indispensable for anyone interested in Angkor. We have quite a collection of books on Buddhist arts and architecture, and I think it is still the best carry-along guide to Angkor.
