The Bayon 100806

A short drive past the narrow passageway at the main gate, we arrive at the Bayon, the flagship temple of Angkor Thom. Buddhist, built in early 13th century by Jayavarman VII, it is the state temple.


To the right, next to the Bayon's entrance, a pile of archaeological rubble. Still priceless, regardless.
