Angkor Wat
Angkor Wat is a temple complex in Cambodia that spans 162.6 hectares (1,626,000 m2; 402 acres). According to Guinness World Records, it is the world’s largest religious structure. Originally built by King Suryavarman II for the Khmer Empire as a Hindu temple dedicated to the god Vishnu in the 12th century, it was gradually transformed into a Buddhist temple towards the end of the century.
1. Beng Mealea was designed as a Hindu temple, but some of the carvings depict Buddhist themes. Its primary material is sandstone, and it is largely undamaged, with trees and thick brush flourishing among its towers and courtyards and many of its stones lying in large heaps. For many years, it was difficult to reach, but a road recently built to the temple complex of Koh Ker passes through Beng Mealea, and more visitors are flocking to the site, which is 77 kilometers by road from Siem Reap.
2. Koh Ker is a remote archaeological site in northern Cambodia about 120 kilometers (75 miles) from Siem Reap and the ancient Angkor site. It is a jungle-filled, sparsely populated region. More than 180 sanctuaries were discovered in an 81-square-kilometer protected area (31 sq mi). Tourists can only visit about a dozen monuments because the majority of the sanctuaries are hidden in the forest and the entire area is not fully demined.
Banteay Srei, also spelled Banteay Srey, is a Hindu temple in Cambodia dating from the 10th century. It is located in the Angkor area, near the Phnom Dei hill, 25 kilometers north-east of the main group of temples that once belonged to the medieval capitals of Yasodharapura and Angkor Thom.
