Looking through the Windows

A lot of the teples were fitted with these windows, with stone shaped like wood. Soemtimes they blocked the window entirely, so it wasn't really a window at all.

The Approach

Originally, most Angkor temples used to be the centres of cities, so this path used to be lined with shops, houses, and all those other fun things that exist in cities. Needless to say, they have all turned into dust now.

Inscription

Tells the history of the temple in Ancient Khmer script, which apparently is different to modern Khmer script...I wouldn't know either of these things if I hadn't eavesdropped on someone else's tour

Johnny

Johnny, my Tuk-tuk/motorbike driver. 19 years old. Very nice guy. Dreams of studying at university, but has no money, so he works as a driver from sunrise to sunset for $2 a day, taking travellers and backpackers around to the temples. Hope things get better for him sometime soon.

Staircase

Is it a sheer wall? No, it's a staircase. Some of these stairs have ridiculous gradients.
