One of the best things to do in Busan is to see a KBO (Korean Baseball Organization) game. The locals are very passionate about their team and they come out in force to see them each and every home game. A game is more like a three hour rock concert than a sporting event but that is the best part. Lots of cheering and dancing along with great food and amazing people, seeing a game here should be on everyone’s bucket list. The Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) was founded in 1982 and is one of the most highly regarded leagues in the baseball world. The inaugural KBO game saw the MBC Chungyong defeat the Samsung Lions 11-7 on March 27, 1982. South Korea’s passionate “cheering culture” is a big part of the baseball experience, often making games seem more like a rock concert than a sporting event. The Lotte Giants were founded as an amateur baseball team of the Korea Baseball Association in Seoul, South Korea on 6 May 1975. On 22 February 1982, the Giants became professional and moved to Busan, the second-largest city in South Korea. They are owned by the Lotte Corporation and have won two championships in 1984 and 1992. To see a game in Korea is a once in a lifetime experience. You don’t need to be a sports fan to enjoy a game. The crowd is there to sing and dance as well as cheer for their team. You can sample food that is only available in Busan as well as sample local beers. It’s an amazing environment and well worth a visit if you want to experience part of Korea. Enjoy the video!

Cambodia has four sites on the list. Angkor was listed in 1992 when the country was briefly governed by the United Nations mission after the Cambodian–Vietnamese War, in line with the 1991 Paris Peace Agreements. The site was immediately placed on the List of World Heritage in Danger in order to quickly and efficiently deal with urgent problems of conservation. In 2004, Angkor was removed from the endangered list. The Temple of Preah Vihear was listed in 2008, the Sambor Prei Kuk temple complex in 2018, and the Koh Ker in 2023. All four sites are cultural. In addition, Cambodia has seven sites on its tentative list. All 4 sites are amazing and well worth a visit. Angkor is by far the most popular but the other 3 sites should be on every travelers list. These are short videos of each one with a full video available. I really enjoyed visiting each of these sites and would recommend them to anyone. Enjoy the video!

Prasat Suor Prat ប្រាសាទសួព្រ័ត is actually a group of 12 separate towers aligned north-south (2 of the central ones are slightly set back to the east) on the east side of the central plaza area of Angkor Thom across from the Terrace of the Elephants. (There are 6 on each side of the route leading from the Terrace to the Victory Gate - Angkor Thom Khloung Thvear Chey). These laterite and sandstone towers are some of Angkor's most baffling monuments in terms of purpose and date of construction. Some historians have suggested a Jayavarman VII construction, although the reliefs, (most badly eroded) seem to point to an early 11th-century, Khleang style. Numerous theories as to their original purpose have been put forward including; viewing towers for visiting dignitaries, acrobatic tightrope displays, or prisons for settling disputes (felm the eye witness of Zhou Daguan). All sound somewhat far fetched. The construction of twelve towers is said to correspond with the number of provinces at the time, so a tower for each provincial governor, while the colloquial Khmer name reflects the tight-rope walking idea. As Zhou Dagan is the only eye-witness, however, his report deserves some credibility. Whatever their purpose, with a background of mature trees and grassy foreground the towers are an attractive sight. All towers are similar in design, set on small square platforms with entrances and small porches opening west onto the plaza and windows on the other 3 sides. They are 3-tiered although the lack of any windows on the upper levels wouldn't make for very good viewing towers. Sandstone pediments feature heraldic designs although otherwise, decoration is minimal. There are also 2 sandstone temples behind each group of 6 towers that are worth seeing while you explore this site. It’s also in the central part of the former capital with the former royal palace and important temples nearby. A really great place to visit. Enjoy the video!

Prasat Chau Say Tevoda and Thommanon Temple are two small monuments located near each other in Angkor, Cambodia. They are similar in plan and style, and although their precise dates are unknown, they belong to the best period of classic art stylistically and represent two variations of a single theme of composition. Chau Say Tevoda is a temple with a central shrine, mandapa, and main eastern gopura, which is almost identical to Thommanon Temple. However, Chau Say Tevoda has deteriorated more than Thommanon, which has been restored. Chau Say Tevoda is currently undergoing an extensive restoration project, allowing visitors to see the process up close. Thommanon Temple is a single-towered temple with an east-facing central sanctuary, crowned by a prasat, or tower. It has well-preserved carvings and an aged sandstone exterior that provides a distinct contrast to the surrounding jungle. The architectural style of its tower is similar to Angkor Wat and Chau Say Tevoda. Both temples are located near the Victory Gate of Angkor Thom and are often overlooked on a tour of the temples. However, they are worth visiting for their unique architectural features and decorative art, which represent the height of the ancient Khmer Empire. Both temples are over shadowed by the larger temples in the area but are well worth a short visit. They are both very popular for the locals that come here to use as backdrops for wedding photos.

Spean Thma ស្ពានថ្ម "stone bridge" in Angkor, Cambodia is known as the bridge of stone and it is located west of Ta Keo temple. It is one of the few Khmer Empire era bridges to have survived to the modern day. It was built on the former path of the Siem Reap River between Angkor Thom and the Eastern Baray and it was probably rebuilt after the Khmer period (around the 15th century), as it includes many reused sandstone blocks. The 14 narrow arches are 1.10 m wide. Spean Thma bridge, showing the use of corbelling. Corbelled arches are nit true arches in thst each oart was not load bearing. The Khmer didn’t use a true arch for their bridge construction. Several other bridges on the same model are visible: in the Angkor site (Spean Memai) and at several locations of the former empire. On the road from Angkor to Beng Mealea, the Spean Praptos is one of the longest with 25 arches. The bridge was abandoned and collapsed after the course of the Siem Reap River changed course. The bridge is just one of many things to see other than temples while visiting Angkor Thom and Siem Reap. The construction is fascinating to me and I really enjoy seeing things like this.

Prasat Baksei Chamkrong ប្រាសាទបក្សីចាំក្រុង It is a small but perfectly formed pyramid temple situated just to the southwest of the south entrance to Angkor Thom. Apart from larger, more complex pyramid sites such as Prasat Ta Keo, Prasat Phnom Bakheng or Prasat Bakong this simple but effective style is surprisingly rare among small to medium temples and Baksei Chamkrong is then an obvious precursor to the slightly later Prasat Phimeanakas. The steep, 4-tier laterite pyramid has stairs at each of the cardinal directions with a single brick tower (perhaps a later Rajendravarman period addition) filling the upper level. It was originally surrounded by an enclosing wall with eastern gopura of which only traces remain. Most of the original stucco on the shrine has long gone but the eastern doorway still houses a spectacular Indra lintel. An important inscription was also found at this site. There are several smaller temples nearby as well as the very popular Phnom Bakheng on the hill to the south. It’s also a short distance from one of the most popular photo spots of the south entrance to Angkor Thom. It’s a nice temple and away from the crowds so you can explore on your own. Enjoy the video!

Millions of tourists come to Siem Reap every year to experience the wonders of Angkor Wat. After the sun sets and the temples have been explored the next adventure is Pub Street. Pub Street, officially titled Street 8, is the culinary and nightlife hub of Siem Reap – sort of the city’s answer to Bangkok’s famed Khao San Road. On Pub Street, you’ll find an assortment of restaurants and bars, as well as entertaining street performers and some fantastic people watching. Starting at 5 pm the street is blocked off to cars making it great place to stroll around and take in the sights. You can’t visit Siem Reap without stopping by Pub Street at least once. The crowds are lively making the area worth a visit. You can meet people from all over the world here adding to your experience in Cambodia. Enjoy the video!

The Khmer term "Chrung" means corner or angle. That's the name of the location, the four corners of the city walls of Angkor Thom. Thus, Prasat Chrung is not one temple, but four, and they are more than three kilometers from each other. The shared name makes sense as the temples are similar in design. All of them are simple Prasat towers on a cruciform ground plan and open to the east, the two Prasat Chrungs on the eastern city wall have additional entrances to the west. The walls are decorated in the Bayon style of Angkor Thom, for example with female divine beings called Devatas in niches. Pediments show standing Avalokiteshvaras, but many of them defaced or scratched out during the reign of the Jayavarman VIII. The southeastern Prasat Chrung is the best preserved of the four strcuctures. Besides, it was the only one with the stele containing the complete original inscription in Sanskrit on all four sides of the slab, today it is housed in the Conservation office. The Prasat Chrung inscription not only mentions the foundation of Angkor Thom, but the previous history of Angkor as well. It is the record from which most books about Khmer history took the information that Angkor Wat builder Suryavarman II came to power by personally killing his great-uncle Dharanindravarman in combat, though this is not mentioned on the more contemporary Khmer inscriptions at Wat Po (Wat Phu) and Bau That in southern Laos. The Prasat Chrung temples were dedicated to the Bodhisattva Lokeshvara (Avalokiteshvara), the same Mahayana saviour to whom the central Bayon temple of Angkor Thom was dedicated. So they belong to an integral masterplan of Angkor Thom, which was not only a city, but a gigantic Mahayana Buddhist temple compound. A visit of a Prasat Chrung temple requires a 1.5 km walk or bicycle ride on the city walls, 3 km up and down, this is why Prasat Chrung is untouristed and pretty charming. The corner locations additionally offer great views to the city moat of Angkor Thom. If you have enough time, it's definitely worth a visit. Exploring the whole city rampart of Angkor Thom completely, requires a 12 kilometer journey. Exploring these temples really shows you how large Angkor Thom really is. It’s also a lot of fun being out away from the crowds and enjoying this part of the world. Enjoy the video!

Prasat Pram ប្រាសាទប្រាំ Koh Ker is a remote archaeological site in northern Cambodia, about 120 kilometers away from Siem Reap and the ancient site of Angkor. It is a jungle-filled region that is sparsely populated. Koh Ker was the short-lived capital of the Khmer empire between 928 and 944 AD, with an impressive number of temples built during this period. One of the most picturesque temple in this area is Prasat Pram. Pram Temple, also known as Prasat Pram, is a must-see temple in the Koh Ker archaeological site. It is a group of three square brick temples built on a common terrace, fronted by two “library” buildings, one in brick and one in laterite. The temple is known for its unique architecture and stunning surroundings, with fig strangler trees wrapping around its towers. The site is made up of five reasonably well-preserved towers; 3 main towers on a central platform, facing east, a west-facing laterite tower to the north (possibly a 'library' and another west-facing brick tower to the south, (thought to be a fire sanctuary as indicated by the diamond-shaped holes. The quiet site is located in the forest to the south of the majority of Koh Ker sites, features extensive ficus roots and is a particularly picturesque one. It’s a hidden gem and i would recommend a short visit if you are in the area. Enjoy the video!

Koh Ker ប្រាសាទកោះកេរ្ដិ៍ is a remote archaeological site in northern Cambodia about 120 kilometer’s (75 mi) away from Siem Reap and the ancient site of Angkor. It is a jungle filled region that is sparsely populated. More than 180 sanctuaries were found in a protected area of 81 square kilometres (31 sq mi).  Only about two dozen monuments can be visited by tourists because most of the sanctuaries are hidden in the forest and the whole area is not fully demined. Koh Ker is the modern name for an important city of the Khmer empire. In inscriptions the town is mentioned as Lingapura (city of lingams) or Chok Gargyar  (city of glance or as iron tree forest). Under the reign of the kings Jayavarman IV and Harshavarman II Koh Ker was briefly the capital of the whole empire (928–944 AD). Jayavarman IV enforced an ambitious building program. An enormous water-tank and about forty temples were constructed under his rule. The most significant temple‑complex, a double sanctuary (Prasat Thom/Prang), follows a linear plan and not a concentric one like most of the temples of the Khmer kings. Unparalleled is the 36 meter (118 ft) high seven tiered pyramid, which most probably served as state temple  of Jayavarman IV. Jayavarman IV ruled from 928 to 941 at Koh Ker. He was a believed to have been the local king at this remote site, possibly his homeland, before he became king of the whole empire. That could explain why he had his residence at Koh Ker and not at Roluos (Hariharalaya) or at Yashodharapura (Angkor) like the kings before him. Some historians think that Jayavarman IV was an usurper; but, the majority of them believe that he was a legitimate ruler who could ascend to the throne because he married a half-sister of king Yasovarman I (889 – 900). The site was awarded the title of world heritage site in September of 2023. It’s the newest such site in Cambodia joining Angkor Wat and others with this honor. The temple is worth a special trip to see. Enjoy the video!

Prasat Kravan ប្រាសាទក្រវ៉ាន់ This temple site consists of a series of 5 brick towers placed on a common, brick platform. The towers are open to the east and is aligned north to the south. A second terrace is situated to the east which probably housed a now lost entrance pavilion, while a 130 squesr meter moat can still be seen although any possible enclosure wall is now missing. The towers themselves are truncated, with upper sections missing except for the relatively intact central one. This temple's most famous feature is several large and well preserved brick reliefs of Vishnu. They are found in the central tower. Similar, equally spectacular reliefs, featuring Vishnu's consort Lakshmi, are to be found in the north tower. Located 260m to the east is a small 240m x 130m rectangular seasonally filled man made reservoir, Baray Prasat Kravan. The site lies aside the road between Angkor Wat and Srah Srang, approximately 1.5kms south of Prasat Banteay Kdei, and dates to the troubled reign of Harshavarman I. The towers are are a popular place for the locals to come and enjoy the evenings. It’s small but the brick reliefs are amazing and worth a bisit to see. Enjoy the video!

Prasat Lolei ប្រាសាទ​លលៃ often simply called Lolei, was begun during the reign of Indravarman I in the late 9th-century to honor his own immediate family as well as the god Shiva. The front pair of 4 brick towers were dedicated to his father and grandfather and the rear couple to his mother and grandmother. Despite additional work by the subsequent king Yasorvarman, 2 more planned tower, which would have made 2 rows of 3 east facing shrines, were never completed. Lolei is the northernmost temple of the Roluos group of late 9th century Hindu temples at Angkor, Cambodia. Other members of this group are Preah Ko and the Bakong. Lolei was the last of the temples to be built as part of the city of Hariharalaya that once flourished at Roluos, and in 893 the Khmer king Yasovarman I dedicated it to Shiva and to members of the royal family. The name "Lolei" is thought to be a modern corruption of the ancient name "Hariharalaya," which means "the city of Harihara." Once an island temple, Lolei was located on an island slightly north of center in the now dry Indratataka baray. Construction of which had nearly been completed under Yasovarman's father and predecessor Indravarman I. Scholars believe that placing the temple on an island in the middle of a body of water served to identify it symbolically with Mount Meru, home of the gods, which in Hindu mythology is surrounded by the world oceans. In addition to the ancient ruins there is a modern temple on site. It’s worth exploring and can be combined with the other temples in the Rulos group. Enjoy the video!

Spean Praptos ស្ពានប្រាប់ទិស also known as Kampong Kdei Bridge ស្ពានកំពង់ក្ដី on the road from Angkor to Phnom Penh Cambodia, was the longest corbeled stone-arch bridge in the world, with more than twenty narrow arches spanning 285 ft (87m). The bridge was built in the 12th century during the reign of King Jayavarman VII. It is one of the few Khmer empire era bridges to have survived to the modern day. Several other bridges on the same model are visible: in the Angkor site (Spean Memai), Spean Thma on the former path of the Siem Reap River between Angkor Thom and the Eastern Baray, and at several locations of the former empire. Spean Kampong Kdei is the most impressive of the country's numerous Angkor period bridges. Also known as Spean Praptos the bridge spans the Chikreng River just west of Kompong Kdei Town. The bridge is nearly 90m long and 15m wide and includes 21 corbelled arches. The bridge also comes with a sandstone balustrade with nagas at each end plus pillars with guardian figures while the riverbanks on each side are terraced in laterite. This was the Angkor period royal road connecting the capital with Sambor Prei Kuk and all points east. Until a Kampong Kdei bypass route was finished all RN6 traffic passed over the bridge itself. Today it is open for 2 wheel traffic and pedestrians only. It’s a small but interesting piece of history. Enjoy the video!

Angkor Wat អង្គរវត្ត "City/Capital of Temples" is a temple complex in Cambodia and is the largest religious monument in the world, 402 acres. Originally constructed as a Hindu temple dedicated to the god Vishnu for the Khmer Empire by King Suryavarman II, it was gradually transformed into a Buddhist temple towards the end of the 12th century; as such, it is also described as a "Hindu-Buddhist" temple. Representing the abode of Hinduism's ancient gods, the spectacular temple of Angkor Wat is quite literally heaven on earth and the jewel in the Khmer archaeological crown. It's the largest of all Angkor's temples and one of the best preserved. Surrounded by a huge rectangular reservoir and an outer wall measuring over 3km in length, the temple consists of three tiered galleries and five towers shaped like lotus buds. Such is the national pride in the site that the outline of the temple features on Cambodia's national flag. Little can prepare you for the sheer scale, splendor and symmetry of Angkor Wat, a perfect blend of artistic genius and spiritual devotion. Although somewhat neglected after the 16th century, Angkor Wat is unique in that it was never completely abandoned and the moat safeguarded the temple against the encroaching jungle. Angkor Wat Is one of the ten wonders of the man made world and should be on the list of everyone. The highpoint of Angkorian architecture and the culmination of centuries of innovation in style, technique and design. Angkor Wat needs no introduction but even at smaller sites such as Prasat Banteay Samre, Prasat Phanom Rung, and Prasat Beng Mealea, all the characteristic elements are on display including; concentric enclosures, raised causeways, cruciform terraces, elaborate gopuras, enclosing galleries, 'libraries', the distinctive 'pineapple' sandstone towers, tiered pediments and lintels featuring finely carved narrative and heraldic designs plus, of course, the iconic devata images. Aside from the sheer size of Angkor Wat, there are few architectural innovations but what it does see is the successful coming together on a huge scale of centuries of trial, error and experimentation. In decorative terms, the elaborate, layered pediments, proliferation of iconic devata figures and covering of wall and column spaces with extensive tapestry reliefs was groundbreaking while the extraordinary gallery reliefs of Angkor Wat itself are incomparable in Khmer architecture. (The relief-lined outer galleries total nearly 1km and nearly 2,000 devata figures have been counted.) Construction methods also seem to have reached a peak during this era with the huge site avoiding the catastrophic collapse of Baphuon and the hasty, poor building work of many subsequent Jayavarman VII sites. A surprising fact considering the sheer number of sites dating to this period although it's clear that many of these sites would have been initiated and completed before and after the reign of Suryavarman II himself.

Prasat Baphuon ប្រាសាទ​បាពួន This massive 5 tier sandstone pyramid, lying slightly northwest of Prasat Bayon is one of the most impressive Angkorian temple sites. Although considered the royal temple of King Udayadityavarman II it is possible that work may have been initiated by his predecessor Suryavarman I. Jayavarman VI (late 11th) is said to have remodelled the upper shrines and the long, raised eastern causeway is sometimes credited to Jayavarman VII. The huge weight of this sandstone temple, approximately 100m x 120m square and around 50m high, constructed on sandy soil, made it unstable and it appears that collapse began at an early date. Reconstruction work in the 15th century lead to the infamous 70m reclining Buddha image on the western facade and the temple's conversion to Buddhism. By the 20th century much of the structure had entirely collapsed. Faced with such a scene of devastation a group of French archeologists decided a complete dismantling and rebuilding was necessary. In 1960 some 300,000 blocks were removed, laid on the ground and carefully numbered for later rebuilding. Due to the intensification of conflict in the area the archeologists had to flee for their lives and their carefully drawn plans were lost. When work restarted in 1996 the EFEO was faced with the near impossible task of putting all of these pieces back together Completion and the reopening of the site in 2011 was a minor miracle. An eastern gopura forms an extension of the Terrace of the Elephants beyond which a 200m raised causeway with a small 2nd gopura at the halfway point. This leads to a 3rd gopura in the inner enclosure wall at the foot of the pyramid. This temple is a historically and architecturally fascinating site as well as a highly picturesque one.

Angkor Wat, temple complex at Angkor, near Siem Reap, Cambodia, that was built in the 12th century by King Suryavarman II. The vast religious complex of Angkor Wat comprises more than a thousand buildings, and it is one of the great cultural wonders of the world. Angkor Wat is the world’s largest religious structure, covering some 400 acres and marks the high point of Khmer architecture. The temple is the highlight of anyone’s visit to Cambodia and is a UNESCO World Heritage site. An activity that is popular to do but requires waking up very early is to come see the sunrise over the famous towers of Angkor Wat. Crowds start forming when the park opens at 5 am to see the brilliant colors in the cool of the morning. If you enjoy sunrises this would defiantly be an activity you want to see. Enjoy the video!

Prasat Preah Vihear ប្រាសាទព្រះវិហារ A large sandstone temple that straddles the Cambodian-Thai border, and sits precariously on the cliff edge. Prasat Preah Vihear is also commonly known as Khao Phra Viharn over the border in Thailand. The site had been occupied and built upon over many centuries, the current structures predominately date between the 10th-11th centuries. Preah Vihear Temple ប្រាសាទព្រះវិហារ Prasat Preah Vihear) is an ancient Hindu temple built by the Khmer Empire, located on top of a 525 meter (1,722 ft) cliff in the Dângrêk Mountains, in the Preah Vihear province of Cambodia. Preah Vihear Temple was supported and modified by successive kings and thus bears elements of several architectural styles. It is unusual among Khmer temples in being constructed along a long north–south axis, rather than having the conventional rectangular plan with orientation toward the east. Construction of the first temple on the site began in the early 9th century. Both then and in the following centuries, it was dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva in his manifestations as the mountain gods Sikharesvara and Bhadresvara. The earliest surviving parts of the temple, however, date from the Koh Ker period in the early 10th century, when the empire's capital was at the city of that name. Today, elements of the Banteay Srei style of the late 10th century can be seen, but most of the temple was constructed during the reigns of the Khmer kings Suryavarman I (1006–1050) and Suryavarman II (1113–1150). In the wake of the decline of Hinduism in the region, the site was converted to use by Buddhists. In modern times, Prasat Preah Vihear was rediscovered and became subject dispute between Thailand and Cambodia. The site is well worth a visit. Its no lk ger accessible from Thailand directly but its an easy deive from Siem Reap or from the border crossing to the west of the site. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage site and an amazing part of the regions history. Enjoy the video!

Sambor Prei Kuk (Isanapura) សំបូរព្រៃគុហ៍ is an archaeological site in Cambodia located in Kampong Thom Province, 176 km (109 mi) east of Angkor and 206 km (128 mi) north of Phnom Penh. The now ruined complex dates back to the Pre-Angkorian Chenla Kingdom (late 6th to 9th century), established by king Isanavarman I as central royal sanctuary and capital, known then as "Isanapura" ឦសានបុរ In 2017, Sambor Prei Kuk was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Located on the Eastern bank of the Tonle Sap lake, close to the Steung Saen River, the central part of Sambor Prei Kuk is divided into three main groups. Each group has a square layout surrounded by a brick wall. The structures of the overall archaeological area were constructed at variable times: the southern and north groups (7th century) by Isanavarman I, who is considered a possible founder of the city and the central group. The buildings of Sambor Prei Kuk are characteristic of the Pre-Angkorean period with a simple external plan. The principal material is brick, but sandstone is also used for certain structures. Isanavarman I reigned over the Chenla Kingdom between 616 and 637 AD, taking Isanabura as his capital and it is argued that he built the main temple Prasat Sambor (Group N), as there is an inscription on the site attributed to his reign and dated 13 September 627 AD. The last important king in Isanapura was Jayavarman I, whose death caused turmoil to the kingdom at the start of the 8th century, breaking it in many principalities and opening the way to a new time: Angkor. This site is also claimed as an early capital of Jayavarman II. The site is currently seeing a lot of much needed restoration. The site is a must visit for history lovers and anyone wanting to see construction styles before Angkor. Enjoy the video!

Prasat Prei Monti ប្រាសាទ​ព្រៃមន្ទីរ When you first see the 3 mostly ruined brick towers they are unremarkable. The site itself is very impressive in size. Traces of an exterior moat with an eastern entrance causeway enclose an area of some 500m x 800m. The area now is a mix of forest and farmland but during the 9th century would have contained a large number of wooden constructions as well as inhabitants. Although the temple was possibly started during the reign of Jayavarman II Prei Monti was maybe the site of Jayavarman III's palace and capital. The towers themselves are east facing and due to poor condition little or no decoration can be seen. A lintel with Indra on Airavata lies nearby. There is also an unusual feature is of a 3m x 2m sandstone basin. The locals say this used to be the King's bathtub. The structure it was once in is completely gone so it’s up for speculation as to its use. The site is in the Roluos group of temples. Roluos រលួស is a Cambodian archeological site about 13 km east of Siem Reap. Once it was the seat of Hariharalaya, the first capital of Khmer Empire north of Tonlé Sap (as the first capital in the strict sense of the term could have been Indrapura, identifiable with Banteay Prey Nokor. Among the "Roluos Group" of temples there are some of the earliest permanent structures built by Khmer. They mark the beginning of classical period of Khmer civilization, dating from the late 9th century. Some were totally built with bricks, others partially with laterite or sandstone (the first large Angkorian temple built with sandstone was possibly Ta Keo). At present it is composed by three major temples: Bakong, Lolei, and Preah Ko, along with the smaller Prasat Prei Monti. At both Bakong and Lolei there are modern buddhist monasteries. The site is difficult to reach and is not the best site in the area. It has more of a historical significance than awe inspiring temple buildings. Half the fun was exploring the area by motorcycle which I show at the start. Enjoy the video!

Prang Pha Kho ปรางค์พะโค The temple is located in the south central part of Nakhon Ratchasima province. Only a few sections of what was originally likely to have been a significant sized temple remain standing today. The temple consists of an east facing, T-shaped main shrine siting on a high laterite base. The lower sections are in sandstone with upper courses probably in brick. One partially intact library sits to the northeast with traces of a second in the southeastern quadrant. Unusually, the 'library' opens to the south. The complex is enclosed by a moat on three sides while modern road now covers the eastern side which would have featured the entrance causeway and possibly a gopura. Although the main shrine in particular is in poor condition the structures still feature plenty of carved and decorative sandstone elements including false doors and octagonal colonettes while the library houses a nice preserved lintel. A pair of devata reliefs were also found and have since been transferred to the Phimai National Museum along with a pair of guardian lions and a damaged pediment. (While common at Angkor temples, apsara - or devata - figures are rare in Khmer temples located in what is today Thailand.) The unusual lintel appears to depict a complete Kala figure with, not only a standard style head and hands holding garlands, but the body of a lion. The somewhat eroded relief is hard to date precisely but the overall style of the sanctuary is early to mid-11th century. A second, damaged lintel is today on the ground as are sections of pediments and colonnettes, a large, intact linga pedestal, several intact antefixes and three lotus bud top pieces. It has been suggested these are evidence of three original towers although no traces of additional platforms are visible. A large number of additional sandstone and laterite blocks on the ground are evedence of additional original structures that have not been restored. The site is small and unknown but enjoyable to visit. There are many sites like this scattered around the region. Enjoy the video!

Prasat Preah Ko ប្រាសាទព្រះគោ Prasat Preah Ko, or Temple of the Sacred Bull predates its larger neighbour Bakong and was dedicated by Indravarman I in the late 9th century, to both the god Shiva and his own family. The sacred bull refers to Nandi, statues of whom can still be seen on site. The 6 brick towers are aligned eastwards on a low platform. The towers are just a fraction of a large site extending to the north, south and west and bordered by a moat. The 600 sq meter area is currently heavily forested and few traces of an outer wall or gopuras remain. The shrines are offset slightly south and to the extreme east of this large enclosure leaving a large empty space in the center which could have been occupied by the royal palace. An eastern gopura, parts of a laterite wall and a second brick entrance pavilion can be seen. The brick towers themselves are in good repair and feature high quality sandstone lintels and inserted carved figures while sections of the original stucco work, which would originally have covered the entire exteriors, can still be seen. Lintels are high relief, intricate heraldic designs; figures are male guardians and devatas while stucco work includes Kalas, small figures and vegetal wreathes. The site is small compared to many of the other ruins around Angkor but the history and the highr quality designs on site its worth a visit its located outside of Siem Reap anout 20 minutes to the east in the Roluos group of temples that predate Angkor Enjoy the video!

Mehrauli Archaeological Park is an archaeological area spread over 200 acre in the Mehrauli neighbourhood of the South Delhi district of Delhi, India, adjacent to the Qutub Minar (a World Heritage Site) and the Qutb complex. It consists of over 100 historically significant monuments. It is the only area in Delhi known for 1,000 years of continuous occupation, and includes the ruins of Lal Kot built by Tomar Rajputs in 1060, making it the oldest extant fort of Delhi, and architectural relics of subsequent period, rule of Khalji dynasty, Tughlaq dynasty, Lodhi dynasty of Delhi Sultanate, Mughal Empire, and the British Raj. The redevelopment of the area as an archaeological park and conservation of important structures started in 1997, in collaboration between Delhi Tourism and Transportation Development Corporation (DTTDC), the State Department of Archaeology, the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) and the Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage (INTACH), which first started systematic documentation of structures in the area and also started conducting heritage walks since 2000. Over the years, INTACH has restored some 40 monuments in the Park and added signages, heritage trails, and sandstone trail-markers. The site is not well restored at the current time but it does have some interesting structures. It’s a great place to explore in your own away from the crowds and enjoy this piece of history.
