• Angkor Wat - Originally named Parama Visnuloka, Angkor Wat is a Hindu-Buddhist temple complex situated in Siem Reap, Cambodia. It spans an impressive 162.6 hectares (1,626,000 square meters or 402 acres) within the ancient Khmer capital of Angkor.

Constructed by Khmer King Suryavarman II in the early 12th century, it was initially dedicated to Vishnu and later transformed into a Buddhist temple. It functioned as both a state temple and a mausoleum for the King.

Angkor Wat showcases two primary styles of Khmer temple architecture: the temple-mountain and the later galleried temple. The design is a meticulous representation of Mount Meru, the mythical home of the devas in Hindu cosmology.

Recognized by the Guinness World Records as the largest religious structure globally, Angkor Wat’s outer wall extends over 3.6 kilometers, enclosing three rectangular galleries that rise successively. At its center, a quincunx of towers creates a breathtaking view.

• Banteay Kdei - Banteay Kdei, meaning “A Citadel of Chambers” and also known as the “Citadel of Monks’ cells,” is a Buddhist temple in Angkor, Cambodia. Here are some intriguing details about this hidden treasure:

Commissioned by King Jayavarman VII during the 12th to early 13th centuries AD, Banteay Kdei follows the Bayon architectural style, akin to Ta Prohm and Preah Khan but on a smaller scale.

The temple’s structures are enclosed by two successive walls and consist of two concentric galleries from which towers emerge. A cloister precedes the eastern entrance.

Located in the Angkor Archaeological Park, Banteay Kdei is accessed from the east gopura of Ta Prohm, situated 3 kilometers (1.9 miles) east of Angkor Thom.

• Ta Prohm Temple - Ta Prohm, also known as the “Ancestor Brahma,” is a remarkable ancient temple located about one kilometer east of Angkor Thom in Siem Reap, Cambodia. Here are some captivating details about this hidden gem:

Constructed in the 12th century under King Jayavarman VII, Ta Prohm was originally named Rajavihara. It served as a Mahayana Buddhist monastery and learning center dedicated to the king’s mother.

After being abandoned, trees grew among the loosened stones, creating a mesmerizing scene. The temple’s crumbling walls and jungle surroundings have made it a favorite among visitors to the Angkor area.

Ta Prohm gained fame as the “Tomb Raider Temple” due to its appearance in the film Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001). The iconic scenes of massive tree roots enveloping the temple were filmed here. Visiting Ta Prohm offers a unique blend of history, nature, and mystery—a true exploration of the ancient Khmer civilization.

• Thommanon - Thommanon Temple is a small yet elegant Hindu temple located in the Angkor Archaeological Park, Cambodia. Built during King Suryavarman II’s reign in the 12th century, it is dedicated to the deities Shiva and Vishnu. The temple is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Angkor and is situated east of the Gate of Victory of Angkor Thom and north of Chau Say Tevoda.

Thommanon is celebrated for its well-preserved carvings, especially the devatas (female deities), which resemble those found in Angkor Wat. The temple’s architecture is a fine example of the “Angkor Wat Style,” featuring a single tower with an east-facing central sanctuary. Despite its smaller size compared to other temples in the region, Thommanon stands out for its intricate and refined design.

• Bayon Temple - The Bayon is a richly decorated Khmer temple associated with Buddhism, located at the heart of Angkor Thom in Cambodia. Let’s explore its fascinating features:

Constructed in the late 12th or early 13th century, the Bayon served as the state temple of King Jayavarman VII. It stands at the center of Jayavarman’s capital, Angkor Thom.

The Bayon’s most distinctive feature is the multitude of serene and smiling stone faces of The Buddha—possibly modeled after King Jayavarman VII himself. The temple represents a striking expression of the baroque style of Khmer architecture, contrasting with the classical style of Angkor Wat.

The Bayon is a mountain temple, symbolizing Mount Meru, the cosmic center in Hindu and Buddhist mythology. Its towers cluster around a central peak, creating an otherworldly atmosphere.

Exploring the Bayon offers a glimpse into the spiritual and artistic legacy of the Khmer Empire.
