Just back from the awe-inspiring kingdom of the khmer. This is the most impressive historic site I have seen in my lifetime. 3 days chock full with the most amazing temples, partly overgrown by the jungle, partly towering proudly over an immense temple area (several km2 for the bigger temples). I took 500 pictures. It will take some time to sift through them, but they can’t all be bad.
The cambodians are a clever bunch. They speak english a lot better than the thais across the board. While they live in primitive conditions, they will go far if they can keep up this determination.
