Greetings from the ancient Kingdom of Cambodia! We took a trip to a town called Siem Reap to visit Kandy and Hoang Huynh during our Thanksgiving break. Angkor Wat, the most famous tourist site in Cambodia is also located in this town.
Angkor Wat is the largest temple in an ancient city that was believed to be the largest in the world about 900 years ago. (1 million people) The inhabitants mysteriously died off or deserted the city and Angkor Wat was swallowed up by the jungle for hundreds of years.

I think the black mold in these buildingsmight be a little hard on people with allergies!
The boys call this the Indiana Jones shot!
One of the temples we visited, Ta Prohm, hasn't been restored yet. It has amazing trees growing in, on, and around it. That temple is where "Tomb Raiders" and "Two Brothers" were filmed.
