The Temples of Angkor travel guide dvd
Welcome to Cambodia. Though much less visited than neighbouring Thailand or Vietnam, Cambodia has established itself firmly on the Southeast Asian tourist trail. Cambodia is still probably best known for the fanatical Khmer rouge regime led by Pol Pot. It is not known how many Cambodians, between one and three million, died at the hands of the Khmer Rouge, during the three years, eight months and twenty days of their rule in the mid 1970s. Nowadays Cambodia is at peace. The main reason that most people come to Cambodia is to visit the spectacular and world-famous temples of Angkor, built by the kings of the Khmer empire. The beginning of the era of the Khmer kingdom at Angkor is conventionally dated to 802 and lasted until the Thais invaded Angkor in 1431.
