Angkor Wat


Angkor Wat is the most famous of the temples in the huge area of Siem Reap. Millions of visitors come each year - for many, this is the only part of Cambodai they visit. There is a lot of wealth in Siem Reap town, however, this does not extend tothe province - Siem Reap province is one of the poorest in Cambodia.
The other temple is called Ta Prom - this is where the "Tomb Raider" film was shot.
Like many ancient sites in the world today - it has survived war, weather and nature but the current risk to the site is from the feet of the tourists!
