This will be my first entry on my experience to see the Angkor temples in Siem Reap, Cambodia. First impressions:

  • amazingly huge and old
  • skillful workmanship - imagine building these temples without cement
  • creative and artistic carvings - the delicate carvings on the wall several centuries ago existed until now
  • very religious society
  • high respect and faithfulness for its kings
  • the contrast between then and now

More stories and pix next time.

But definitely a must-see for everyone, at least once in their lifetime :)
