The Way In
This is another of the temples located in the jungle around Angkor. The cool thing about this one is that you can see the whole way through, from one side to the other. This was our final stop after a long day of temple visiting and although everyone was exhausted and not in the best of moods, it was lovely to still be out during that time of the day. The heat had become more bearable and the setting Sun had provided the perfect light. What was also quite nice was the fact that we had the temple pretty much to ourselves, as all the other tourists had scrambled back to Angkor Wat to gather once more for the sunset. As we slowly walked back we past children coming back from school, locals riding their bicycles back home and monks chatting under trees. When you took away the hordes of tourists racing around, trying to take as many photos as their camera would let them, you really got a feel for how calm and peaceful the place was.
