Southeast Asia holds some of the most impressive scenery and old stone
constructions in a place where sacred temples remain standing despite
the thousands of years that passed by. Angkor Watt is perhaps one of the
most massive and mind-blowing sights in Cambodia, something that so
many have traveled across the planet to experience.
Today remain more than 100 stone temples in the Angkor Watt temple
structures, built by the Khmer civilization between 80 and 1220 AD. The
history book says Angkor was chosen for its strategic military position,
but computer simulations have shown the construction plan is built
following the stars' location in the Draco constellation at Spring
equinox in 10,5000 BC.
The temple is dedicated to the Hindu god Vishnu, with the enormous
temple being a mirror of the Mt. Meru, with rectangular walls and moats
symbolizing both the mountains and the cosmic ocean.
