Angkor Wat
As promised, here are some pictures from our visit at Angkor Wat outside of Siem Reap. Angkor Wat is the most famous temple in the region and is usually used as name for the entire region. However are there several sights in the area such as the city of Angkor Thom, where the temple of Bayon lies, as well as numerous temples all around. If you want to read more about Angkor Wat and the surrounding temples here are two of many existing links:

I tried to make a description by each picture but didn't succeed. Therefore I divide them in to four and give you a short explanation before the pictures.
These four are from the temple of Angkor Wat. The first sees Angkor Wat from the east, the second a view inside the temple. The third with Henrik an example of a decorated wall and finally the fourth with me looks at the west front side from the temple.
The following are from outside and inside the ancient city Angkor Thom. Firstly it is Henrik outside one of the entrances, secondly a view over the Bayon temple. Finally the third and fourth picture are inside of Bayon.
These final four are from Ta Prohm which is also know as the Tomb Raider temple since part of the movie was shot here in year 2000.
