Description

To bring the divine down to Earth: that was the dream of the rulers who built the large temples in Angkor on the Cambodian plain. This highly ambitions project had challenged the Khmer civilisation and continues today to induce wonder. The treasures of Angkor have passed on to us enough information to understand the myths, heraldic organisation, cosmology, and social life of the Khmer, one of the most powerful and mysterious civilisations of the Far East.
