Cambodia is a unique place in Southeast Asia listing on the main stop for tourist which often attracted to visit the temple with almost a thousand (1000) years old of age. There is no such a dinosaurs or any harm natures or animal in this golden land (it was called in the past). During the king reigned over the country in the olden day, there are many Antique Temples rising up a proud for its people.

This ancient buildings/temples were constructed mostly during the powerful Khmer Kingdom with rich resources and influenced to the neighboring countries. Somehow, many of those things in the past has gone as the political instability and war with neighboring countries. 

The new era of Cambodia starts after the end of the Pol Pot's regime (killing field, hurting, devil and hell times) made this country back into the map for tourist attraction again.

Antique Angkor

I was not able to understand the way how this amazing temple standing until today even though I went there to see this unique place for several times already. When I was at school, I only can learn about its history related to these event but was not able to reflect the knowledge of the Khmer Ancient people until I saw it by my eyes.

The temple is really old yet still strong to make the whole Angkor complex the most attractive place in the kingdom ever. Amazing temples because they way to put the construction of stepping stones together is not just weird but also strange for there are so such thing happened somewhere else in the world. The mud stone was putting on top of one another to make the temple very strong to build houses for the king.

Where is it in Cambodia?

Angkor Wat is built in the area where surrounded by the thick juggle in the Seam Reap, Kingdom of Cambodia. This ancient city became attractive with modern lifestyles and activities one of the economics booth for tourism sector of the country.

Seam Reap International Airport makes it possible for visitors/tourists who want to make a direct fly there or they can fly to the capital city at International Phnom Penh Airport touring the city first or in either way should work.

Today this tourism site became a modern city in the midst of Unique Ancient/ Antique Angkor City complex.

When I was young and foolish I traveled to Cambodia, I went to Seam Reap. I didn't make it to Angkor Wat, we opted to go to Phnom Phen instead. What a mistake that was, I hope someday I get a chance to go back there.
