Wat means temple and Angkor means city. Therefore, Angkor Wat means the city of the temple. The Angkor Empire began to collapse in the late thirteenth century and was completely destroyed in the 15th century, leaving Angkor Wat buried in the jungle.

In 1861, a French naturalist came to visit the jungle to collect samples, and it became known again.
