| Notes: We woke up at 0530 so we could get to the ruins early. Angkor Wat is amazing! The journal entry will tell you all about it. These famous temples were build by the Khmer kings between the 7th and 13th centuries. There are more than 100 temples in an area of 200 square km here. This was the administrative and religious centre of the Khmer empire that stretches out over a large part of SE Asia. We had a big, tiring day, and then we went out and explored the Cambodian night life back in town. (N.O.) | ||
Help support our cause: The LONGITUDE Expedition is the longest journey ever attempted with a focus on Parkinson's Disease. The Drive Around the World team aims to raise money for Parkinson’s Disease research by driving four Certified, Pre-Owned Land Rover Discoverys around the globe following lines of longitude. Readers are encouraged to pledge small amounts of money per expedition-kilometer via a pledge form that can be found on our Parkinson’s page by clicking HERE. One hundred percent of donations received go directly to Parkinson's research, and all who donate $10 or more will be entered into a raffle to win an expedition-equipped Land Rover Discovery.
