    Angkor Cambodia

    Ah Cambodia! A great escape from the madness that is Vietnam. Found a lovely self catering spot near the center Siem Reap (Siam Defeated) in the center of Cambodia. This is the home to Angkor and its Wat's which are a bunch of temple's built around the 9th to 13th Century. At the same time it is said to have been the largest city in the world with an estimated population of over one million inhabitants. And then in or around 1431 someone turned the lights off and the whole place went dark of humanity. No one know why. It was rediscovered in 1840 by a French Naturalist Henri Mouhot. Its a fascinating place. I have put some links below.

    For those who have not heard of the US bombing of Cambodia only to open the door to Pol Pot it is a very sad history for these lovely people. Pots theory was to bring its people back to the year zero. So when he was ousted in 1979 the country was in ruin. 45 doctors left living in the country. No Currency and few international supporters.

    Sorry it isn't supposed to be a history lesson but it is valuable to understand what this great civilization was subjected too. Everyone that we met there had a smile for us.
