Siem Reap Temples, Cambodia - Thursday, September 15, 2022



Discoloration and moss growing on the Buddhist statue (missing in the center) reminiscent of a person with leprosy, hence the name


Replica of the statue from the center of the temple - original in Phnom Penh museum




 

Bridge to the temple has a snake as the banister with heads of statues missing




Temple meaning, Citadel of Women, dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva 


Beautiful intricate carvings









Display of only a portion of land mines


Pre Rup Hindu Temple 961 or early 962 - funerals were held at the temple



Dinner and Aspara show on our last evening in Siem 

Enjoyable show performed by orphans from the war.   Come and visit Cambodia to help restore tourism!
