Aetreus Eldricht 📷 🧙♂️⚡Angkor Wat, en el corazón de Camboya, no es solo el monumento religioso más grande del mundo; es el testimonio máximo del ingenio de la civilización Jemer bajo el reinado de Suryavarman II (c. 1113–1150 d.C.). Originalmente dedicado al dios hindú Vishnu y más tarde transformado en templo budista, su diseño es una representación microcósmica del universo hindú: el monte Meru.
La ingeniería hidráulica de los Jemeres fue revolucionaria. Angkor funcionaba gracias a una red masiva de canales y depósitos de agua (barays) que permitían la agricultura intensiva y sostenían a una población de casi un millón de personas en su apogeo. El foso que rodea el templo principal no es solo ornamental; su diseño técnico ayuda a estabilizar el nivel freático para evitar que los cimientos de piedra colapsen en el suelo arenoso.
Cosas interesantes que tiene este lugar:
El Gran Foso: Con 190 metros de ancho y un perímetro de más de 5 kilómetros, es una proeza de excavación manual que simboliza el océano cósmico.
Bajorrelieves: Miles de metros cuadrados de muros están tallados con una precisión quirúrgica, narrando epopeyas como el Ramayana o escenas de la vida real del ejército Jemer.
Las Apsaras: Más de 2,000 "bailarinas celestiales" talladas en piedra adornan los muros, cada una con rasgos, peinados y joyas únicas, reflejando el ideal de belleza y espiritualidad de la época.
Alineación Astronómica: Al igual que en Teotihuacán, la astronomía dictó su forma. Durante el equinoccio de primavera, el sol sale exactamente sobre la aguja central de la torre del templo.

…and the Apsara-crew took the road less travelled, because they make all the difference.
To manage, develop and maintain the vast human cultural treasure of the Angkor Wat and Angkor Park is a monumental task, literally speaking.
Apsara Authority are the organisation caring for the approximately 420 km2 area of Angkor Archaeological Park. It contains more than 70 larger temple sites, and over 1000 smaller sites.

Dag-Rune ZBlue face in blue night
The blue colour of the hour just after sunset is enhanced by a large painting in blue variations and black of a Bayon portrait. These stylised portrait covers the facade of Bayon Temple in Angkor Thom. They are supposed to be of the great emperor Jayavarman VII, who built Bayon as his State Temple. But the style imitates classic pose of a Buddha, reminding everyone JVII was the first powerful Buddhist god king of the Khmer empire.
Night market in Siem Reap is not one place. There are several. This one is from the newest, established in 2018. There are two more.
Siem Reap- morre than temples
The night markets are one of the night life activities in Siem Reap, visited by tourists and locals alike. One of the interesting aspects of Cambodia’s second largest city are the effect the large influx of visitors an expat has on the city life and offerings. There is a great chance to meet interesting people activities in this city built on the ancient Khmer Empire and the modern international culture.
Visitors and long stayers alike have offerings of museums, mine sniffing hero rats, botanical garden, animal refugee centre, Circus, art galleries, aquarium and wildness centre.
Shopping is an option not only for the evening, and then there is a wide offering of places to eat and drink. That includes fine dining with both international and local based cuisine, all the way to street food. There are offerings for bike trips, sunset trips, photo trips, Angkor off the beaten track-trips, added with options like food class, pottery class or art classes.
