  Bantey Srei filigree relief work
by herzog63
 
 

These carvings were done in the late 10th century!! To think how they survived in this condition is just amazing. I need to learn why "False Doors" are so popular in the Angkor Temples. They look nice but where they designed to make people believe that they were real doors? Hmmm a good question for Google....!

Directions: 21 Km north-East of the Bayon

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
