Most of the Cambodian buffet Raiders worth watching Temple

Angkor is a jungle and a stone building. Here to witness the rise and fall of dynasties for several generations.

Each of the Angkor temples all have their own characteristics.

The building itself, plus nearly a thousand years in the place of stay, together making up now for the treasure of praise.

Pre Rup (grain Temple) 10 century is built, known as Angkor civilization expression of concise Edition, laid at that time, ideas and tendencies of architecture.

It is typical of Hindu architecture. Just north of the square, the platform is a tier 1 storey, the level of each ladder height difference has nearly 50cm, top platform has five Tower, Center a maximum. In the West of Sras Sran platforms, see the left front that can be seen Pre Rup's main tower stands out in the jungle.

Angkor Wat (or Angkor Temple) is the best, largest, time-consuming 37 years of construction.

12 century Hindu for worship, but also in the 13th century into a Buddhist temple, laments the decline of Hinduism. It is surrounded by a wide moat, Simon best, repair is also appears in the flag of Cambodia Angkor architecture, it is in the center of the gate and the small doors on both sides. Size doors between the corridors and doors to the wall, stone corridors and doors on the wall everywhere fine stone carving. This is our first and most recently the distance to see these stone, therefore looks particularly carefully, then realized that these are just the place is very small, or even ignored. Simon has a broad stone before, previously should be a Serpent God both sides of the Qiao. In addition to Simon, surrounded on three sides is false doors, Dharma think people died after climbing Western Bliss, open Simon let soul ascended to heaven. Into the West of the West is lengthy, depending on a road with a symmetrically on both sides of stone buildings, land, and high school level, do not know how to call, when many people sitting in the Sun in the architecture and feel the atmosphere, the entire primary sakes, the Temple of five Tower is like being a layer of gold plating. Shen Road East end flat, there's like a lion's head, on both sides. And then see it should be is triple corridor and to the main hall of the central tower is the center of the tower block 5. The Northwest four gallery walls are all tell the story of stone carving, war, life; there are all kinds of people, there are various animals and plants. Galleries in a layer above the layer, even if not to go on but at the same horizontal circular, is also a door will have to go up and down the whole like climbing. Along the corridors at every level up, the five-seat minaret. Watched 70 degree bevel edge of stairs, not fault-tolerant distinguishing sign reads "climb at your rish" (many temples of the places you want to climb with brand wrote). Each ladder will probably half a metre high, but only 10 centimeters in width. I am the hands and feet as rock climbing, and at the last minute were only pulling a climb, Angkor Wat temple of main southwest corner of central tower bottom, I finally knew that they were afraid. From the Tower bottom go in, only to find ya climbs up, because here, there are two heavy enjoys a cloister, the area is not small. Block 5 under the tower is for Buddhist statues. Angkor VAT in peripheral look and feel that it is not high, but the climb the main hall, then look down, feel that one really small. And five seat minaret close contact, where rock carvings are saved is very good.

Phnom Bakeng (bakheng/Hill): actually we arrived the second temple.

It is said that the Khmer Empire moves of Angkor built the first temple, known as the "first Angkor", is a famous place to watch the sunset. Because Angkor Basic is plain, therefore, not far from Angkor Wat, the 100-metre-high Hill became a unique key. 5-6 o'clock, numerous security police have defended the shortcut of the mountains, in the climb, probably worried about too many people and trampling on accident, because people stepping out of loess ladder (we'll go through the day, they didn't see persons). Only walking next to a loess Ping Road, around the mountain to go almost 20 minutes before to bakheng before. Along the way, the Sun had set, but there are a large number of people from the mountains down, are followed by tours Mosha liberty. Buchan Temple has been beaten, but let me first feeling of architectural features. It is a typical half-metre high ladder + 10 cm width, climb it took me a lot of effort. Perhaps because it was first climbed here, the second climb of genius, Angkor Wat, so here is still very fresh, courage also full, so climb too fast. In the temple roof, you can see that the West is open Westlake (West Baray) and the southeast of Angkor VAT in the jungle stands.

In the South Gate of Angkor Thom (Angkor South City gate), the first time I see the Angkor smile, it's a quiet force in the gate.

In fact, Gates smile is a Buddha. Moat is the stone bridge, on a rack on both sides of the bridge railings each have a row of 54 stone carving of a bust, on behalf of the gods, on the other side of the representative of the devil, they took the Cobra King of serpents avatar. Here's the bust is of no head, but was saved by the best. Then see the North Gate and East Gate, Preah Khan (Holy Temple) of moat, should have the same stone, but the basic rundown, are just hard to carry the body of the stone. It is said that approximately 100 meters of the moat, on the ancient keeps many crocodiles, is used to fend off enemy attacks.

Bayon (BA Rong Temple) is the most central Angkor temples of the city is also the capital city of the Southeast Northwest four gates in the city of junction points.

Built in the 12th century to Buddhist-Tower and cloister, mural and famous have very bad, is being renovated. It is said that the temple is the Buddhist teachings of xumeshan (World Center) and for the concept. Around the central tower is 49, surrounded the great Buddha carved Buddhist-Tower of the face, the face of these Riddle Buddha smile, smiley, serene with mysterious. Buddha's four sides on behalf of CI, sadness, happiness, care, joys and sorrows are not-to-color. Do not know "Angkor smile" whether resulting. Galleries in fresco from the Royal Palace on campaigns to people living here, provide valuable for future generations of history, full of folk art and cultural characteristics of the jungle.

Ta Pro

Hm (Tabou Chi Temple) also known as Mother Temple, the Angkor Empire Silver King Jayavarman Ⅶ built, used to sacrifice their mother. To our greatest shock, because here the pine tops of trees. It is said that here now very famous because of the "Tomb Raider" in this film viewfinder, but I think otherwise, Ta Prohm has every reason to conquer the hearts of visitors, as long as you can. Ta Prohm should be Planar structure instead of Angkor VAT and Buchan's typical storey of the holy mountain-style structure, perhaps therefore let here into the tropical rainforest in the world. Whether big or small tree root, such as the snake around Ta Prohm inside, into the building. But the temple the fallen stone tower and walls that pile of a heap, the stand of trees and tree in East-West one, so that the original rules of the monastery into a labyrinth. Remember that online to see a description of the image's description: tree and Tower is wrestling tournament in the two petroleum, between grip each other, but the game is in minutes instead of the century to timing. Here, you have to lament the great outdoors. A seed, perhaps by the wind, maybe is the bird to the huge stone on stone slot, it is the life that has not been defeated, but the environment continues to differentiate themselves, growth cells continuously stretch slowly seeping into the solid rock, finally occupied the entire stones of the site. The great life is the infinite adaptability to the environment. This is the Jayavarman Ⅶ built used to worship the father in the Temple of "parent", and Ta Prohm architectural style is very different, it is the same as in King City gate and a moat, larger. Temple statues carved in a deep and wide. In the stone, and sculpture sky woman (Apsara) murals. Main corridor side there are all kinds of big stone building, which has a 2-story building, is a large circular stone pillars, have the feeling of the Winter Palace.

Banteay Srei (female Palace), far from Angkor, 20 or 30 km, take the tutu spent 1 hour, mostly asphalted road, small part is perfect.

Two lanes of traffic, where there is a large truck, it raises a loess, so water cloth baotou is necessary. Banteay Srei very small, it is a flat structure, standing outside the small Earth package, the towering old trees lining ying, only a feeling: dapper. The perimeter of the walls also have a moat, because it is the dry season, water, side keeps the purple water lily, and the other side by the shore of Banteay Srei there is a tree, the tree and water tank drift with red petals, very characteristic, that moment reminds me of the funeral flowers Daiyu. Banteay Srei is a Hindu temple, to emboss is famous, is attractive to Cambodia Cape village one of the three Holy Temple, known as "Angkor" Pearl of the ancient building. Approaching Banteay Srei, meso-those deep stone carving, elegant Angel (Apsara), vivid flora and fauna, fascinating myths and stories, animal head personal kneeling, door door bottom pattern, all exquisitely was stunning. Moreover, the passage of time, to the rock carvings painted all color red green, in the sunshine, just think that this is the beauty is not party. Although Banteay Srei area is not large, but here you can see the foot to look at 3 hours.

Beng Mealea (BEng mealea) is go to the farthest architecture.

40 dollar package car morning. Car to 70-80 kilometres per hour, also had 1 hour 15 minutes. Then see many people departing tutu, cheaper, but with a 2 and a half hours. Now the way from Siem Reap to go are built very well, are asphalted road, far from the network at the Raiders on the loess way better, perhaps because to many travellers, the infrastructure will also be faster. Beng Mealea I see almost fell down 80%. It has a wide moat, therefore from the periphery to the temple door presumably so many temples in the farthest. Doors have long collapsed, everyone from the walls on the inside. The entire Beng Mealea are collapsed. We do not follow the repair of wooden ladders into it, and no indication by the local people who climb inside collapsed stone, but yourself in the collapse of large stone on the front row. It is said that his own mess go easy to get lost, but this did not happen to us. It is because the monastery buildings are being Southeast Northwest at the direction of the progressive, very good read. Don't know why people say will get lost. From the collapse of large stone to see, where we step foot are previous roof beams, stone walkways, it feels like the whole Beng Mealea set foot in the feet. Although stone is stagger piles of, but a slightly condensed, each stone has exquisite decor. Occasionally see Save as good side door. Beng Mealea also is a place where plants occupy. Weeds, trees, tree roots and stone Millennium together. Beng Mealea said, was built in the 12th century soulie PostScript Mo II (Suryavaman Ⅱ) dynasties, was a city of India temples for worship of Lord Shiva. This is the Angkor complex, the first entirely in stone building of the temple, the architectural scale and Angkor Temple. Moat 1.2 km, width 0.9 km, was once the main roads leading to Viet Nam, Angkor, Cambodia, North of main roads pass through here.
