The Artistry of Angkor Wat

Angkor Wat Siem Reap, Cambodia April 2019

A surreal walk towards the gates of heaven not knowing what lies behind them. Indeed, a unique world worth uncovering.

@lheanstorm — and off to the next temple

The heat was extreme that early morning, it’s the dry season after all. I thought I have prepared myself for such temperature, but the climbing of the steepest stairs got me off balanced. Well, it really was an adventure. Gotta return to catch the sunset next time.
