Catching sunrise at Angkor Wat

Peace be upon you all. Time to share stories from my second day in the recent Cambodia-Thailand trip...


Friday morning 23rd November 2018 me and family went out of our resort as early as 5.10 am local time.



We wanted to get to the place that is the main reason for our Cambodia-Thailand trip.



And we wanted to reach it before sunrise.








In order to get there we have to walk quite a distance including crossing a 180-metre wide body of water...






We have to take one of the gates which form a vast complex...






From the gates there was still a distance to get to the said place...








Welcome to the famous ancient building known as the Angkor Wat.











Built in the early 12th century AD it is said to be the largest religious complex on earth.








We wanted to catch sunrise over it...





For the record this is the 1,919th article in this blogspot.
