Day 18 - Siem Reap, Cambodia - Part 2
This afternoon was certainly a highlight of the trip. The temple of Angkor Wat was built in the 11th century and is the size of Los Angeles.
There is a moat surrounding the temple.
This is the king's entrance
Budda greets you as you enter
The group needs a rest once in a while
The bas relief is the longest in the world
The original color still remains in places
Climbing the stairs
We didn't attempt these
All of the temple walls were covered in gold, you can see the remnants in some places
This is a cistern
These crazy people crawled to the top to watch the sunset
Some enterprising company has set upa sort of balloon ride - it goes up and down on a rope
After the temple visit we had dinner and a fllor show with Cambodian dancers in native costumes
