Banteay Srei Temple, Angkor, Siem Reap, Cambodia
Banteay Srei is a 10th-century Hindu temple in Angkor, Cambodia dedicated to Shiva and Parvati. It lies near the hill of Phnom Dei, 25 km north-east of the main group of temples. Banteay Srei is built largely of red sandstone, a medium that lends itself to the elaborate decorative wall carvings which are still observable today. The buildings themselves are miniature in scale, unusually so when measured by the standards of Angkorian construction.
