Ancient Temples of Cambodia

Angkor Thom

Angkor Thom

We took a five hour bus from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap, which is very close to the magnificent temples of Angkor. This empire reached its height from about 900 to 1200 A.D. when its rulers built amazing temples all throughout their kingdom.

We also met up with my mother to tour around the temples together. Our first day, we took a auto rickshaw (tuk-tuk) around and the next we explored on bicycles.

Here I am with my mother in front of the crowning achievement of the Khmer empire – Angkor Wat.
