Angkor Wat

One of the highlights of our trip to Cambodia was spending a couple of days at the Angkor Wat ruins in Siem Reap, several hours north of Phnom Penh. The more than 100 temples of Angkor were crafted of sandstone between 802 and 1220 AD. Our English-speaking guide was able to explain the history of the Khmer civilization as depicted on the walls of many of the buildings. Buddha's face is carved everywhere. Angkor Wat is the Cambodian site most visited by tourists--and it is easy to understand why. We have never seen anything even similar to it.
We traveled from our hotel by tuk-tuk, but as you can see, there were several other ways to get there.
