Angkor Wat...Again



I was looking through my photos of Cambodia and I am still amazed at the temples at Angkor Wat; I wish my pictures could even remotely reveal how amazing they are...over 40 miles of temples from the various Khmer dynasties, built between 802 and 1220 A.D. cannot be summarized in a few pictures.

Anyway, I thought I'd share a few more pictures of it with you. Ta Prohm is truly a spectacle with the trees growing over, around and through some of the beautiful temples.





While not a stunning photo (below), the temple at Prah Prei was actually quite amazing, more for it's solitude. It was quite a long hike to get here through a rough terrain (and very steep), so there weren't any tourists (which suited me just fine!)...








So I took a few minutes to take it all in and enjoy the view of the other temples in the background.
