Khmer Majesty
For completely irrational reasons that we won't get into just now, Chan entered Cambodia extremely skeptical of Cambodians. After being completely won over by their friendliness and kindness, he definitely has a different view of them. After witnessing firsthand the splendor that they started building in the 10th century, one cannot be but amazed. Especially striking is that the Khmer dynasty abandoned these temples, leaving to be overtaken by the surrounding jungle.
Angkor Wat is the most famous of these temples, but there are many larger and smaller that are even more interesting. Several of the temples, such as Angkor Wat, are still in use today by the local Buddhist monks.
