Angkor dreams

I remember reading about Angkor Wat or 吴哥窟 in a secondary school chinese textbook and dreamed of visiting the place one day. This dream was realised recently when I visited Siem Reap with R.

We went to Angkor Wat, Bayon, Ta Prohm and Bantaey Srei and each temple left a different impression on me. Angkor Wat is extremely majestic but the crowds drove us nuts... Bayon exudes an extremely zen feeling whereas Ta Prohm is like an enchanted forest... Bantaey Srei has the most amazing carvings and it is definitely worth a visit despite a 30 min drive away from the main temple grounds.

I have included selected pictures of my trip in the form of a slideshow below (in all honesty, starting this blog has allowed/ forced me to learn new technology). Enjoy! =)
