Description
Lost to the world when overwhelmed by jungle in the 15th century-and more recently when occupied by the brutal Khmer Rouge regime-the temples of Angkor reflect, with consummate artistry, the rise and fall of an empire, and the enduring patterns of Khmer life. Once the spiritual centre of ancient Khmer cities, the temple are now being reclaimed by the Cambodian people, and by travellers and archaeologists from across the world.
