Angkor Wat

Angkor Wat is a Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Vishnu and later became a prime site for buddhists. This temple is located in Cambodia and is the epitome of Khmer architecture. This is the only temple that remained as a significant religious site since its foundation. This is the countries' prime attraction site for visitors and combodia selected the symbol of this temple on its national flag.

Angkor Wat's (means "city temple") construction and design started in 12th century during Suryavarman III's reign. But the construction work stopped after the kings death. In 14th century this temple was converted to Theravada Buddhist use. This is the biggest temple in terms of area but with less activity. This is one of the Combodia's world heritage sites and its worth visiting this place.
