| Day Two - Angkor Wat at Sunrise, Prasat Kravan, Pre Rub, East Mebon, Ta Som, Neak Pean, Preah Khan, Elephant Terrace Again, Phnom Bakheng, and West Baray | |||
| The west baray (pictures at the end) gave me shivers. Its a man made reservoir, made at the time of the temples, that was about 8km x 2km and originally an average of 7m deep. I still have nightmares of manually digging out the yard for a small driveway, how the hell did they force people to dig a baray? I'd have chosen death if it was an available option. | |||
