Description
Sign up for this unique online experience of the World Heritage Site of Angkor Wat Temple, the largest Hindu monument in the world. I will take you through the history of this royal kingdom, focussing on its culture, religion and civilisation.
You will see an ancient bridge crossing, built in 1113 AD. Then, we will walk across one of five gates to reach the compound of the Temple. You will be amazed by a giant statue of lord Vishnu, who is believed to be the protector of the universe.
We will then walk across the former Royal Gate to the main building to see an amazing causeway that stretches 300 meters long. Along the causeway, there are two buildings which are the former libraries from the Angkorian Period. Walk with me through the main gallery full of bas-reliefs about the story of the incarnation of God Vishnu , Ramayana, Mahabharata and the Demon-God battle. After this, we will visit the pavilion of thousands of Buddha statue and see four ponds symbolising the four elements of our body.
Finally we will climb up to the top level where there are five towers symbolising Mount Meru, the home of holy gods such as Shiva, Vishnu, Brahma and other Gods. On the top level, we will admire panoramic views of the the gallery, causeway, libraries, pools and other amazing architecture.
