Amongst Queens & Kings in Angkor Wat


This is home for me, guys. If you ever get a chance to travel and have an itch for off-roading, history, and amazing people (myself included ;D), there's no bias in me when I say Cambodia will satisfy that itch. 




Look at this beauty. Each time I go back home, I try to see more and more of these temples, even though I grew up there since I was 10yrs old. It makes me feel so proud to be who I am. Everyone needs to experience that deep rooted feeling. Back to the roots, quite literally. Ta Prom is the temples where Tomb Raider with Angelina Jolie was filmed an the trees have taken home in and around the sandstone carvings. I explored a new temple called Ta Nei (tourists rarely know of this place, but luckily I had the best tour guide who you can tell had a passion for Cambodia's past), as you can see on the second to last picture. Bayon is a favorite of mine (the temples with many faces) because the bas reliefs and carvings are just immaculate. No matter how many times I come back to this place, I experience the same level of awe and wonderment.
