Angkor Wat Photo Book
|Angkor Wat, "City of Temples" in Cambodia is the largest religious monument in the world.
It was built between the 9th and 13th century. Originally Hindu, it absorbed Buddhism into the art and culture in the 12th century.
It is estimated 1,000,000 Khmer lived, worked and created 1,000 temples honoring kings.
The city had the world's largest population before the Industrial Revolution with a land area exceding 280 square miles.
My new photo book explores the magic and beauty.
