The jungle recalims a temple...
After lunch, we toured the fabulous Angkor Wat, a temple complex built over hundreds of years starting in the eighth century A.D. In Southeast Asia, a temple (wat) consists of a campus that can include a main hall with an image of Buddha, dormitories, classrooms, a dining hall, etc. We saw a wedding party visiting the temple, and took a picture of the bride and groom.
A huge rectangular moat surrounds the temple grounds...
Small arms fire damaged one of the entrances when the Khmer Rouge sought refuge inside...
