S i e m R e a p - 1

The visit to Cambodia'a Angkor has to be one of my finest and treasured trip lately. In June, my party of 5 hired a driver and in his comfortable passenger van, we visited as many temples as we could in 4 days. The preserved temples in Angkor and what is left of the beautiful ruins, are simply a sight to behold. This place is a photographer's haven, and I could spend days shooting from dawn to dust. There are so many shots taken that I liked, and I hope you enjoy the photos as much as I enjoyed taking them.

Angkor Thom South Gate

Our first temple visit take us to Angkor Thom, an ancient capital during the Angkorian empire. There are 5 gates to enter the capital, and we took the south gate, which is the most popular entrance.
