Exclamation Angkor-induced friend

Exclamation Angkor-induced friend

Hello! I am from Cambodia Angkor Empire came back.

This used to be the world's largest cities, with more than one million population of the King, today only 8000 people, living in covered with luxury hotels and restaurants, bars of Siem Reap town, relying on their ancestral heritage. Go to the attractions of a street can see is said to be the best of the villages, the four pillars with a housing, mostly of wood and thatch on the cover of the house walls and roof neatly bright, it must be rich, but more of a precarious rotten grass hut, luckily, there are no typhoons, not cold, it is the grace of God.

Tonle is the second largest freshwater lake in the world, fifteen dollars by boat on the Lake of totally didn't enjoy the beauty of the moondown light wave, which is a church, recalling our sufferings of education course: near the shore of a slip of a humble wooden boat, that's some Cambodians and the House of Viet Nam 's, this little boat is their Hall, bedroom, kitchen and toilet, and also from Lake to Lake to discard it, Brown Lake with odor.

We saw women in Lake laundry, baby bath, kids naked to jump down the Lake. A little girl on the neck around a big snake, sitting in a small thin Iron Bowl designated to cruise ships, side-swing-Fu to visitors to take photos to make money. There is also a "pirate ship", an adult with small boats, with five or six-year-old boy, catch up with the boat, the little boy from small ship flies jumped ship to sell something, then go back to the boat. This kind of stunt and rail guerrilla same door, some may be more difficult, because his take-off point is turbulent and fast boat. Children here are many national languages, we said: "sister beautiful" and "candy, candy". There are also on the Lake, some decent is primary, small shops, and even Church, and the contrast is to provide services for foreign tourists beautiful bar, Cambodia is relying on the brilliant display of ancient and modern, but to earn foreign exchange.

Cambodia unavoidable should face the pain of war: frequent in decades, numerous mines are buried in different factions to the underground, so far, the Cambodian territory also kept a 1000 million unexploded anti-personnel mines.

An average of more than one. Currently there is still a day at least 2 people killed or wounded by landmines. If you remember correctly, the Royal Palace is the only row in 2003 after Lei to visitors, disintegrating mealea later, in 2007 in order to enter the street there are warning signs to remind the "non-call-in". More mutilation ' bands that are etched in your memory to remember the word ' mine '. Well my friend, let us cherish peace, cherish our happy life!

The guide told us: Cambodia land is fertile, rich in fish, there is no natural disasters, Edison, this should be the affluent countries, the Khmer Rouge killing as many as 100 countries of the elite, after 20 years of war have wonderful mountains and toss it so awkwardly.

In the car we saw women embrace infant couple a long long team, the guide said: that's ADA queued to vaccinate children, usually to the night of waiting. Siem Reap to Phnom Penh a hundred miles, locals because of too expensive not to sit on the bus, but choose to sit hailed as ' the dead car ' taxi, the taxi to be packed into ten people, I have seen it on TV with people in the cars Disney records, the records of the taxi manned this.

Most Cambodians in abject conditions: — personal year average income of only 200 dollars.

Teachers, police, customs officers ' wages are not enough to sustain life. Traffic police rely on fine, customs, only I wonder if the teachers to extort bribes. We have a few friends from different channels left blank when I met the convergence of the officers on the comparison is just hideous mumbled, another group of officers will learn the "ten dollars," and then there is a customs officer simply shake a ten Yuan, luckily we had know this thing, but when you do not understand that in the past, seen Raiders speaking to 1 USD, now converted to yuan renminbi.

The guide said that Cambodia was no industrial, daily are imported, for example, Tonle fish to Thailand, in Thailand are processed into Cambodia people love to eat rotten fish sauce and then importing them for sale in Cambodia.

So while low income, low cost of living is not. Now do not fight the civil war, the situation will progress! but when we know: national treasure, Angkor Wat is the private contract management, astonished of Cambodia's future is not so optimistic.

Last year I went to Egypt, the ancient temple of Luxor's beautiful, magnificent similarly striking, but after the fall of the same is brilliant, poverty, Egypt has been missing since ancient, is looking for people to France.

Similarly, apart from the Angel of the Yuan dynasty of China, Cambodia's writing ancient history a blank, but 500 years later, France explorers in search of the book, I do not know whether the Angkor Wang will still fall in the boundless forests. I'm really puzzled on history, why so clever, so prosperous country succumbed to a foreign invader that we had also occupied the Central Plains, but our civilization has conquered the intruder, finally a unity in our ancient civilization, while the wooden ancient buildings cannot be retained, but there is no cultural stretch for five thousand years, for my country, my national pride.

Angkor Palace women, Brolo's monuments rich colors, TABB columns collapsed lung, dense trees and stone formation of deep secret elaborate light atmosphere, good effect of photography.

The Angkor and Rong Temple, all-black stone, if not at sunrise and sunset, are difficult to color, many hope to go to a bit wearing robes of master starting point clear, but the old temple has gone on Buddhism, Buddhist temple in China remains shrouded, monks low brow Namaste, believers so they 'd. If I wait for visitors to this could lesson to impetuous, null aware. The Angkor now presented to visitors is the epic architecture, is a fine art, the Buddha himself away, leaving the temple smile spring air.

Oh, not emotion.

Angkor is really amazing, regarding her picture, fairy tale to repeat. But some do not understand: the Cambodian people don't like the creation of God, and love to the God of destruction, that is because invasiveGod has loved God mistakenly triggered and raped his daughter. And old fetishism, will go to worship termites nest, it is curious that myth, strange beliefs. Although the MSC cruise, there is no opportunity to learn more about stone outside of the connotation, but who is five days of pure play gourmet tour, all reside in Angkor, tour times more abundant, and have guided tours outside of customs, the monuments tour $ 2999, eating, housing, transportation is also good. If the last day of the month, at the cost of the project, select go to Museum instead of Tonle, mood better. If the bus can stop it, so that I can get those pitiful diaojiaolou qi, take the field in the rare white cattle, and dress black rays still Hing high color Margaret's children, I have regrets.

Write to the me! with a few photos.
