@iraeravlogs: This temple can tell you the exact day of the year. It was built 900 years before clocks existed. 🏛️ Angkor Wat sits deep in the jungles of Cambodia and is the largest religious monument on Earth, larger than the Vatican, larger than any temple in India. It was built in the 12th century by King Suryavarman II of the Khmer Empire, originally dedicated to the Hindu god Vishnu. Nothing about this temple is random. Its corridors are carved wall to wall with scenes from the Ramayana and Mahabharata. Its wide moat represents the cosmic ocean, and its five towers represent Mount Meru, the center of the universe in Hindu cosmology. But the temple hides something even more extraordinary. Twice a year, on the spring and autumn equinox, the sunrise aligns perfectly with the central tower. Researchers have identified 22 separate sightlines built directly into the temple's design, tracking the sun and moon across the calendar year, a functioning observatory nine centuries before modern instruments existed. When the Khmer Empire collapsed, the temple was abandoned. For nearly 400 years, the jungle reclaimed it completely, tree roots growing straight through solid stone, until a French explorer stumbled upon it by accident in the 1800s. Today Angkor Wat remains on Cambodia's national flag, the only country on Earth with a temple on its flag. The history is real. The legend still lives on.

One of the best places I visited. I’m not a fan of having a guide but on the 1st day of my 4 day pass I moped 🏍️around with them and they showed me some great areas off the beaten track and their knowledge was excellent. Well worth the $30. I will definitely be going back. Amazing magical place ❤️
