Angkor Wat, the wonder of the world

#GetDiscountsWithoutLuck Angkor Wat, the Wonder of the World Unseen Cambodia Angkor Wat or "Angkor Wat" is a group of temples in Cambodia and is the largest religious site in the world, with a total area of ​​162.6 hectares. It was initially built as a Hindu temple dedicated to Vishnu before gradually changing into a Buddhist temple in the late 12th century. Angkor Wat was built in the early 12th century by King Suryavarman II. It must be said that Angkor Wat is considered the pinnacle of classical Khmer architecture. It has an architectural style that is hard to compare to anywhere else. It uses sandstone as the main material for building the building. The exterior structure is made of laterite. Around the castle, there are carvings that convey the royal duties of King Suryavarman II or sculptures of more than 1,796 apsaras, each with a unique hairstyle and costume. Come experience the beauty of a foreign country once. You can walk all day and enjoy the art and there are many beautiful photo spots. Pin a visit to Cambodia.
