This could be just rocks with water running through, but this carefully sheltered source with its exquisitely carved stones, part of the San Agustin archaeological park, is a true masterpiece. The Lavapatas ceremonial fountains represent one of South America's most remarkable water sanctuaries, where pre-Columbian artisans transformed natural bedrock into channels, pools, and symbolic carvings that still direct water flow millennia later. The view from the bamboo bridge is much better, but I'll keep for another post!

A trip down memory lane - which did I prefer? Angkor Thom (αž’αž„αŸ’αž‚αžšαž’αŸ†) or Angkor Wat (αž’αž„αŸ’αž‚αžšαžœαžαŸ’αž)? http://bit.ly/3L7l06a #AngkorThom #αž’αž„αŸ’αž‚αžšαž’αŸ† #Angkor #ArchaeologicalPark #Angkor, #Cambodia #AngkorWat
Cambodia β€” Day 1: Angkor Thom (αž’αž„αŸ’αž‚αžšαž’αŸ†), Angkor Archaeological Park, Angkor, Cambodia

Angkor Thom (αž’αž„αŸ’αž‚αžšαž’αŸ†) dates from after Angkor Wat (αž’αž„αŸ’αž‚αžšαžœαžαŸ’αž). Angkor Wat (αž’αž„αŸ’αž‚αžšαžœαžαŸ’αž) was built between 1110–1150, and Angkor Thom (αž’αž„αŸ’αž‚αžšαž’αŸ†) was built during the reign of Jayavarman VII (1181–1218).
