This time is wet season in Cambodia so the weather is always cloudy or doomy, but this has added an magical atmosphere to those ancient Khmer temples, making the historical sites more magical and surrealism! 
This is my unforgettable trip of life, this journey is worthy every cent, at least once-in-a-lifetime journey! ☺️

The ancient Khmer architectural style has had a significant influence on neighboring regions. This can be seen in the distinctive multi-tiered roofs and towering spires that characterize Khmer architecture.
