Cambodia was home to the Khmer Empire, one of Asia's earliest civilisations. This small country now attracts millions of visitors each year to visit Angkor, the ancient capital which is host to 1000 temples, the famous of which is Angkor Wat.
It was for this reason I came to Cambodia—to explore the temples at Angkor. Fascinated by the temples of Angkor Wat and Bayon, I wanted to step back in time and explore the forgotten culture and architectural wonders of the Khmer Empire.
