    After the war ended, I moved to Siemp Reap. Back then, Angkor Wat was deserted, barely anyone there. I was there alone someday, I could almost do whatever I want back then because no one took charge of the building. At noon time, I took a nap inside Angkor Wat because it was cooler. I could smell bat, smell the building. I was lucky and unlucky the same time. I had a chance to explore the entire Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom. There was a deep hole in the middle of Angkor Wat. I wish I could have a flashlight to see how deep and to see what was in there. I am now in America and never went back since I left the country. I have a lot of stories about Siem Reap and Angkor Wat which I don't want to share.

      OMG I am a siem reaper and I have never heard of that hole. Interesting 🤔 I am trying to learn the history and the real stories behind these temple and your story is very unique.

    Angkor Wat is definitely the best place to visit in Cambodia. If you live here for two years, it's FREE! Wonder where you are now, as you mentioned that it was two days before Valentine's Day. Safe travels 😎😎

    Hey great video. You wouldn't have made the sunrise if you had visited the temple in October. By the time you buy the tickets at 5am & get there you would have been too late that's why I brought my tickets the day before & then I could be there at angkor wat at 5am & not be rushed to get there as it is quite a walk from where the tuk tuk drops you off. Glad you had a good day

    Great video! I really enjoyed your tour and commentary of the sites. If I could make one critique, the clips of the sites/buildings are too short. You showed the "landscape" shot of the buildings only for one or two seconds. This is my first time seeing these places and it would be appreciated to have a few more seconds to "drink in" the scenery that you are experiencing. Otherwise, I enjoyed this video. I wish you the best on your travels together. I will be watching more. Thank you.

    • @cecilschmid7167
      @cecilschmid7167 Рік тому

      It was not made from "muddy stones" - the older temples in Angkor are mostly brick constructions, while the "newer" ones (like Angkor Wat itself) are mostly made out of sandstone.

  • @bdaralan
    @bdaralan Рік тому +7

    The temple’s steps are steep by design. Angkor Wat was where the King lived; so if there were to be an enemy invasion or infiltration, they won’t be able to maneuver up the temple very easily.

    • @cecilschmid7167
      @cecilschmid7167 Рік тому

      Sorry, but that's just wrong. No Khmer king ever lived inside Angkor Wat, as it was a temple, not a palace. The steps are steep partly by design, in order to make it more challenging to ascend towards heaven and the realm of the gods (of which Angkor Wat is a representation), and partly due to 850 yeara of erosion.

    @xiaoan5226 Рік тому +1

    The steps are steep not because human’s feet back then were small and anything. The reason is just because the temple is dedicated to god, so they made it hard to climb to represent the devinity of gods.

    Too much nationalism.
    We want tourists and archaeologists to learn the true history of what they saw or traveled thousands of miles to see. You don't just come to see it because of its beauty or amazingness. But you should also be aware of the true history. Not here to be tricked into believing.
    It should not be acceptable the distortion of history just so that the Khmer rulers can create nationalism for political purposes among the people and be able to influence them. Easier to govern.
