A Temple of the Gods Standing Tall Across 900 Years

Angkor Wat, located in Siem Reap, Cambodia, is one of the largest religious structures in the world. Built in the 12th century by King Suryavarman II as a Hindu temple, it later transformed into a Buddhist temple. Its grand scale, intricate carvings, and perfect symmetry—all of these elements tell the story of the Khmer Empire's glory and profound faith. From the mythological tales spread across the walls to the stunning silhouette of the towers visible from afar, this is not just a ruin but a place where living history can be felt.
