Cambodia

officially known as the Kingdom of Cambodia, is a country located in the southern portion of the Indochina Peninsula in Southeast Asia

Also known as "Citadel of Monks' cells", is a Buddhist temple in Angkor, Cambodia.

Banteay Srei is the most spectacular masterpiece of architecture and sculpture in the 10th century. It is also considered the peak of art in South East Asia.




Angkor Thom is in the Bayon style. This manifests itself in the large scale of the construction, in the widespread use of laterite, in the face-towers at each of the entrances to the city and in the naga-carrying giant figures which accompany each of the towers.



Bayon in Cambodia is one of the most famous Angkor temples and is renowned for possessing a unique architectural display of giant stone carvings of faces as part of its structure. The temple is located 10km from Siem Reap and the main UNESCO archaeological park, and has a privileged location right in the center right of the town of Angkor Thom. Bayon temple highlights include a dramatic array of architectural complexes to explore aside from the signature faces who will watch your every move.

Angkor Wat is the largest Hindu temple complex in the world. The temple is part of the Angkor World Heritage Site, established in 1992, which has provided some funding and has encouraged the Cambodian government to protect the site.
