Angkor Temples

The Angkor Temples are the highlight of any visit to Cambodia. Hundred of temples are spread in the jungle north of the city of Siem Reap. We took a 3 day pass to see them all, it was well worth it!

Some temples are covered with trees, this one is called "tomb raider"

Some trees are really impressive and are probably here for hundred of years.

The famous Angkor Vat, the main temple of the area and the largest religious building in the world.

The temples were built between the  9th and 13th century but are still well kept and it takes some time to get until the top!
The above temple had 216 faces like these ones.
Except temples we also tried the local food, with the Khmer barbecue! A boiler allows you to cook meat (chicken, beef and crocodile in this picture) and you can also make your own noodle soup in the same dish, a great invention!
