My Cambodia Trip..... Part 3

This is one of the famous smiling buddah face. It's been said that those who took photo with it will get good luck. Well we will see about that...

Next the beautiful frames from the window of the temple. They are all surrounded by lush green trees... man... the air there was great. Never would you think that your lungs could get such fresh and pure airs...


Next location was the pink sandstone temple. Man the sandstones was pretty. Especially their carvings... small but details.... cool

Ok for the lady in question here... i don't know what she's doing or what she is looking at.. but i still find her interesting so, i decided to take her photo... hahaha

My Cambodia Trip..... Part 2

First thing on the second day was a trip to Angkor Wat temple again for the sun rise... but... Well it's the rainy season so... it's more pf seeing a cloud rise then sun rise. Yet everyone of us were happy to be there again...

After failing to catch the sunrise... we went back to hotel for our breakfast... after that, we went to a Arts school... where the people of Cambodia went to learn Arts and Crafts. Come to think about it, they are really very good with their hands... Just look at this sculpture.

Next was the culture center where you get to see a miniature Cambodia.

Next we went back to Angkor Wat... this time we spend 2 hours there. Finally get the chance to climb to the top to have a breath of fresh air...

Just by standing at the top, you'll feel that your brain's not working, your lung's full of fresh air, your legs are weak( after all the steep steps) and the person who design this temple is crazy... The steps aren't for people with short legs and big feet... Heard from the tour guide that they design this temple this way is because temple is heaven to them and it's hard to get to heaven.... but what about when u get, won't be it very dangerous? Maybe getting down is to remind them of the hardship in hell...

Next Bayon temple.... the famous Tomb Raider Temple... I just find this temple eerie, well think
about it.... a big tree growing on top of a poor old torn down temple... who won't find it eerie?

Finally one last photo before i stop for the day...
We manage to leave our bosses out of this shot...

Things i saw in cambodia ... Part 1

The beautiful sun rise i see when i woke up on the plane. Something not too exciting but still i find it breath taking. Something you don't always get to see when you have your feet planted on the soils of singapore.

Went to a silk farm... though i really hate the worms there but the surrounding was really relaxing... wonder if it's for the worms or for the vistors going there.... to relax them before putting them on the chopping board to make them buy more...

When to the famous Angkor Wat temple... Man.. the view was breath taking... and it's soo high... If only i could just climb to the top for a breath of fresh air... Tried as we might.. somehow i just can't seem to get a sun set view or the sun rise view of the temple... Well this will have to do.

Never knew the sky could be in such a nice colour. Well it made me drool over again... wishing that i could see the well known sun set...



Well before i log off... here's a playfull me just infront of the temple..
