A temple saved from the waters : the restoration of the Western Mebon in Angkor

- The film "Angkor, un temple sauvé des eaux, la restauration du Mebon occidental" [Angkor, a temple saved from the waters, the restoration of the Western Mebon] relates the major stages of the restoration work carried out by the EFEO and the Cambodian authority APSARA (Authority for the Protection of the Site and the Development of the Region) from 2013 to May 2018. The restorations and excavations associated with this site have provided a better understanding of the special place occupied by the Western Mebon, a temple dating from the 11th century, during the Angkorian period.
A unique work in the history of the Angkor temples, the Mebon is an ambitious project, a symbiosis of architecture and engineering, stone and water, a religious development that makes these hydraulic structures sacred. Testimony to its complex and still partly enigmatic history, the large bronze statue of a Vishnu was discovered there. It was a monumental representation of the myth of the creation of the world, resting on a snake in the middle of the primordial ocean. - Наука та технологія
I'm Cambodian Australian I been to the west Mebon Baray twice..I'm really honor for you helping to restore my ancestors political and religious monuments, Ankorian temple are full of prophecy and teaching in the khmer Sanskrit writing drawings on the walls, stairs of temple to remind the khmer children to love each other then fight each other to save the Khmer heritage and people from extinct or invaded by foreigners.. Thats why if Cambodia have war the ruin will destroyed if peace it will be restored to its former glorious..
Angkor Wat straight up looks right out of fantasy novel. Myself hailing from South India, am familiar with the architecture but Angkor Wat is definitely something special.
I always find of extreme ignorance that humanity spends trillions of money in weapons and wars and yet people that want to uncover our world heritage and history are still fighting to rebuild and save that same history ! This should be of interest of all of us on the Planet, we should support every find and every endeavor to uncover more of our mysterious past that we still don't know but yet here we are in the years 2000 watching this fantastic people fight against Nature and Greed to give us all another small part of that lost Mankind History ! It is sad and at the same time encouraging to see that in our world at least we still have people that want to know real lost facts in our history ! Thanks for the video !
Thank you for your comment and your support!
I am overwhelmed and so inspired by all of the hard and painstaking work carried out on the site by what appears to be a generational team who have done a magnificent job for the world to see for many decades. I am in awe of you all and the sites that you are so dedicated to. I managed to visit at 60 fulfilling a lifelong dream of walking and touching the actual temples and bare stone. Thank you all.

"And today, God has said it to Prophet Kacou Philippe on April 24, 1993. And if you are a child of God, it is in him, Kacou Philippe that you must believe to be saved. And if you really have the Holy Spirit, this Holy Spirit will lead you to him, the prophet of your time, as one day, this Holy Spirit led Cornelius to Peter who had the keys of the Kingdom of the Heavens. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]. And if you must serve God, it is to echo what Prophet Kacou Philippe, the living prophet of your time, says. And this is the only thing you can do."

I wish we could do the same in India. May Lord Vishnu bless you.
We do, it’s called Taj- Mahal. It’s a sister temple.
Compare them, even the tomb
Thank you for your comment.
Do the same in India? In which way?
To have fascinating archaeological complexes? There are plenty of them : Kajuraho, Mahabalipuram, Sanci, Udayagiri, Konarak... for exemple.
Restore monuments? This is also done thanks to the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI).
Vishnu CAN'T BLESS anybody if he even exists!

Sleeping Vishnu and Naga ... the idol would be either AnanthaPadmanabha Swamy ( worlds wealthiest temple in Thirvanthapuram) or Ranganayakulu swamy ( Srirangam temple) who are both avatars of Lord Vishnu. Googling images will help. 🙏🙏🙏

I’m Khmericain my grandparent recall that Khmer Kings were a powerful people during Ancient Angkorian Civilization. This magnificent Temple that stand in the middle of the water out of nowhere it’s a mind blowing architectural and astonishing construction . I’m wishing more that Cambodia Govnment could work on this project and bring out more revenues to welcome visitors to come and adorn this Khmers Ancient treasure . I love my country of Cambodia it has deep roots and riches histories .

C'est tellement merveilleux de voir la restauration du temple de Mebon de l'ouest avec l'aide de la France. Aussi notre condoleance et gratitude au feu Mr. Pascal Royere.
C'est tellement merveilleux de voir me travail de restauration du temple
Thank you for your comment and your interest!
when you look at the map at 1:38 there are straight lines or canals all over like the one the temple is in. Ever get the idea some of these ancient sites are way older than history tells us. Great work by the way. Not to often do you feel this kind of emotion watching a documentary very powerful.

Quel plaisir de voir un pays qui fait tout ce qu'il peut pour sauvegarder voire reconstruire son patrimoine quand tant d'autres préfèrent empiler des pierres numérotées

I was hearing West Mebon is recently being restored. I wonder whether the restoration is complete? I am planning to visit it again after my last visit 5 years ago.
Hello, no the restoration is not complete. The site can, perhaps, be visited but only outside the work site, you must check with the boatmen. If you want to visit the work site, you must check in advance with authority in charge of the work site, the APSARA.
What an Amazing restoration job Awesome

Hope they can reconstruct hampi site in india... bateswar temples is getting reconstructed
This is all so impressive. Hopefully, future populations will recognise all the effort that has been made and the restrictions under which the teams had to operate.
The future is always uncertain. Hopefully, there will not be a future entertainment industry, a “Khmerwood” perhaps, making money from pushing the story to spoiled future generations, of oppressive French colonialists who came in and ruined everything, profiting from grandiose, ludicrous fictions of the heroic locals who fought against them and drove them out. Then again, hopefully there will not be a sweeping infection of a religion - professing peace, but practicing actual oppression, violence and the destruction of each culture it subsumes.
Thank you sir

Would not be surprised if there's was a lot more hiding under the water
The video title is misleading. The temple that is saved from the waters is Mebon, not Angkor. Mebon is 1 of dozens of temples in the area, of which Angkor is the most magnificent and best known.
I understand your misunderstanding, but the Western Mebon is part of Angkor just like Angkor Wat, which is certainly the most famous temple of the region. Angkor is the city that houses all these temples.
So strictly speaking, the title is correct: we relate the major stages of the restoration work of the Western Mebon, one of the temples of Angkor.
We have modified the title to make it clearer.
@@EFEO, I don't misunderstand. Although I now live in Canada, I'm originally from Cambodia, where in 1975 I was a 2nd-year university student in Phnom Penh. "Angkor Wat" is the full name of the most famous temple, and "Angkor" is its short name, "Angkor Wat" and "Angkor" mean the Angkor Temple (in Cambodian, "Wat", pronounced like the English "what" without the leading sound of the "h", means pagoda). Your video title was misleading because it mislead viewers to think that "Angkor" is the name of the temple that's saved from the waters. Good for you that you've modified the title to try to make it clearer, but it's now ambiguous: is it "Angkor" or is it "The Western Mebon?? If you change "Angkor" to "In Angkor region", then you'll perfectly clarify things.
@@phengkimving We understand. Indeed, Angkor Wat is still too often referred to as just "Angkor", which is an unfortunate shortcut that leads to confusion in the understanding of the names for those who do not know this region of Cambodia.
As you know, today, the name "Angkor" refers mainly to the area of the historic capital at the foot of Phnom Bakheng. Officially "Angkor" it's the archaeological park which contains the remains of the different capitals of the Khmer Empire.
We agree, the first title was misleading. Now, the Western Mebon being less known than Angkor Wat we had to specify that it is part of Angkor.
In any case, thank you for pointing out this confusion and allowing us to explain it.
As a former (or still?) academic, you know that it is important and necessary to use the right terms in order to have a precise and correct discourse. And if this allows people who don't know it to learn that Angkor is not actually (just) Angkor Wat and that there are other temples to discover at Angkor, then that is a bonus!
@@EFEO, Now the title is better. Good for you. Thank you for your response and action. Thank you for your restoration work.
great i wish I'll tr one day.
Thank you for your comment. We also hope you will have the opportunity to discover the wonders of the region of Angkor!
