Cambodia - Angkor Thom




Three last pictures of Angkor Thom.  

First, new temples have been built around the old temples at Angkor Thom, and that is where we saw local folks (who certainly were paying respects to buddhas at the old temples) paying their most faithful respects.  Like the temples in Thailand, I have never before seen faith like I saw in the pictured temple in the jungle.

Second, the lion statue looks really pissed that I'm sitting so relaxed on what are probably royal steps.  But I was pretty relaxed.

And last, what in the world does that birdman have between his legs?
