The history of Angkor Wat, the largest temple in the world, took about 35 years to complete the Angkor dynasty. It used up human and material resources to build this temple. temple? If you, like me, personally enter this temple, you do not believe it is a temple, which is exactly like a royal palace! After years of research by scholars, it has been concluded that Angkor Wat will not be a royal palace, that there is no spacious room in the entire Angkor Wat, and that it is impossible for the King to live.
How did the Angkor dynasty of the 14th century build this temple? Local guides explained to us that the temple was built of limestone (limestone), each of which is transported by elephants thousands of miles from the limestone mountains to their destination. The name of the carving of the entire temple to complete the relief, these decorative relief, making the building flashing light and vivid, harmonious and perfect. Each relief is a legend to express religion, we are familiar with Journey to the West story, but also in Angkor Wat relief paintings appear.
Many Buddhist statues in temples have no picture, their picture is cut off. (I did not take a photo, because I think this is disrespect) This is because Angkor in every dynastic change, will be the king's religion and change the state religion. Until the end of the 12th century, Hinduism was the main religion of Angkor, and all the statues were constructed based on the Indian Buddhism. In the fourteenth century, the new dynasty believed in Buddhism and the king ordered all the Indian statues in the country to be destroyed. However, up to now, there is a temple that still holds the statues of India.
The beauty of Angkor Wat is difficult to describe in words. Only by going to the temple to explore it can it feel its beauty and its mystery .
A Temple Built in Thirty-Five Years A Temple That Has Been Exposed to Different Dynasties An Abandoned Temple A Temple Buried In The Forest A Temple Inadvertently Found by a Hunter A Reopened Temple.
Mysterious, beautiful, magnificent monuments - Angkor Wat.
