    Everything about Angkor is so amazing. This GIANT well planned city _complex_ with controlled waterways was thriving at the same times Europe was still struggling to get itself out of the dark ages. When London had less than 20,000 people living in it, Angkor had 700,000 or more. At one point it was the largest city in the world.
    And they way it was built with moving pre-cut blocks and then carving them once in place was a simple yet ingenious move. The building of Angkor is on par or greater than that of Rome.

      Angkor Wat is amazing, but they're using the term "city" rather loosely here. What they're really talking about it a series of settlements and infrastructure- a region, not just one discrete city.
      They're referring to an area that covers over 500 square miles. That's a huge area that would not be identified as a single city in the pre-industrial area.
      At its peak, the ancient city of Rome had a population of 1.5-2 million people in an area of around 5 square miles.
      Constantinople in the 12th Century had around 500,000 people in an area of about 4 square miles.
      The "Angkor Thom," which is the core area of Ankgor Wat that would be identified as a discrete city by the historic inhabitants, had a population of around 150,000 people in 4 square miles.

The religion of the oldest South Asian civilisations is completely unknown; at the same time, both the Zoroastrians and Jews practiced early versions of their faith.
      Don't listen to Hindu nationalists. They are more interested in politics than the truth. If you are Hindu, you can be proud of a great and ancient tradition, but the evidence that it's the world's oldest religion is not great.

    It was a hindu Temple with the name Parama Vishnu loka. The initial design and construction of the temple took place in the first half of the 12th century, during the reign of Suryavarman II (ruled 1113 - c. 1150).
    In 1177, approximately 27 years after the death of Suryavarman II, it is converted as Buddist temple.

      Not just hinduism, many other ancient architecture still stand strong today.
      It is not as if people today don't have the knowledge to make structures to last almost forever, they just don't want it to be. Ancient architecture relied too much upon rocks. Making structures out of rocks would be very costly. Earlier there used to be kings and the labour used to be very cheap. Many people used to die making these structures. If someone makes such structures today and labours would die then there will be a court case and definitely a lifetime prison to the builder. Moreover there are more than a billion people in India alone, if every one of these people's house was to be made out of rocks then there would have been a lot of weathering and destruction of forests and ecosystems. It is easy to criticize modern engineers to not make modern buildings to last forever but they don't realise that there is no need for long lasting buildings.

The a , aa , ka , kha are all very similar. Agree the temple was built by Khmer as the designs do not bear resemblance instead have their own style. Scenes of epics on the walls of Angkor were stunning. Both shiva and Vishnu were worshipped and then Buddha who is also believed to be one of Vishnu’s avatars.

      @@vardhanarya Delegations from India can place a request to the Kingdom of Cambodia to reconsecrate Angkor Wat as a Hindu temple; but it will have to be their decision finally.
      Maintenance is also a consideration; if it is secured from India, then it represents an outflow to Indians. For Cambodians, it is an expense and depends if they are willing to take it on. If there is a will among private temple management delegations, then perhaps there is a way forward.

    Angkor is undoubtedly the greatest civilization world has ever seen.. massive buildings, temples, canals, farmlands all give Angkor an unmatched place in history. It's really amazing how they chisselled such masterpieces on stone. All the monuments here are much beautiful than those in Egypt or the western world. But I think tourism could be slowly destroying what is left, the spirit of Cambodians to preserve their culture and history is really appreciable. Let us hope that Angkor shall rise again in its full glory
