"Behind me is Angkor Wat, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, and unlike Great Angkor, this little Angkor is the best-preserved temple dedicated to the Buddha in Cambodia." The guide pointed to the shocking building behind him.

The feeling of the Bakken Temple is completely different, the Bakken Temple gives people the feeling of the Old Summer Palace after it was destroyed, although some of the murals have been preserved, but most of the places are broken and very poor. Angkor Wat, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, feels quite complete, at first glance it really looks like an ancient castle, and there is an extremely wide "moat" in front of Angkor Wat. In the middle of the moat, there is a heavy stone bridge, which leads to the final location of this Cambodian cultural tour, Angkor Wat.

At the entrance of the moat, there are also two stone sculptures that I don't know what they are, because Liu Songnian's attention was not on the stone carvings, he was only anxious to enter Angkor Wat to watch, and did not want to ask about the origin of this stone sculpture.

And so it does everyone else.

Since Angkor Wat has a history of more than 1,000 years, many of the stone slabs on the stone bridge have been cracked and uneven, showing the vicissitudes of history.

The surface of the moat is quiet, but the water is muddy and has a dark green color. Because of the greed for fun, Fan Shutong couldn't help but pick up a stone and threw it towards the water surface of the moat, the stone sank to the bottom of the water, and there were also waves on the water surface, with the stone falling point as the center outward. A circle spreads out, and the scene is quite beautiful. If the water quality of this moat could have been a little better, I believe this scene would have been very pleasant.

There are a lot of pedestrians along the way, after all, it is a wonder of the world, and more than 200W tourists come to Cambodia every year, maybe this number is not much in China, but in Cambodia, it is enough to compare with the total population of Cambodia.

The main entrance to Angkor Wat is a grey stone wall, with a magnificent stone tower on the left and right sides of the wall, and a tower in the middle of the wall. The stone tower is cylindrical. The top of the tower is flat. The tower is layered, and each layer has special patterns and murals, and the city wall is also full of different murals.

Get a close-up look at the main entrance of Angkor Wat. PEASE couldn't help but sigh, "It's one of the Seven Wonders of the World." I didn't expect that humans would be able to make such a magnificent building thousands of years ago. According to the tour guide, there are a large number of fairy murals in this Angkor Wat, as well as many patterns of Buddha and villains. These are carved after the tower is built, not carved before. ”

"Why?" Liu Songnian asked.

"Didn't you listen carefully? Just now, the tour guide said that there is also a mural on the wall that is only half carved to the half, and then it seems that it is because of bad feng shui, or the terrain is too rugged to carve, and the emperor finally strikes this mural, which is the most favorable evidence for my previous statement. PEASE SAID.

Hearing this, DUCK said obscenely: "Hehe, these fairies are still naked with their upper bodies, and there is only a short skirt on their lower bodies, which is very primitive~"

"It's a shame on you." Fan Shutong couldn't help but say, "But then again, the top floor of this tower is 65 meters, and in ancient times, there was already a technology that could carve at a height of 65 meters?" It's really incredible, at that time, these current aerial work machines were all gone, were they just carved by ladders? That's too dangerous, isn't it? ”

"Indeed, every miracle building handed down from ancient times is the crystallization of countless sweat and blood, didn't you just say? Did it take 37 years to build Angkor Wat, or 35 years? The coach said.

The tour guide at the front said: "Okay, it's not early, this place closes at 5 o'clock, we have to hurry up." As he spoke, he took the lead and quickly walked towards the interior of Angkor Wat.

Walking up the stairs, everyone entered Angkor Wat through the door of the stone pagoda in the middle, and after passing through a passage full of frescoes of various patterns on the left and right, they came to an open place.

The tour guide explained: "This is the Temple of a Thousand Gods, where there were originally thousands of Buddha statues everywhere, but now most of them have been stolen, and there are many incomplete ones, because they were too heavy to be moved, or the guide was accidentally destroyed." By the way, I forgot to say just now that the three stone pagodas at the entrance represent the founding god in Hindu mythology, the god of destruction, the god of destruction and the god of protection. The protector deity is the most central, that is, the stone pagoda we passed through before, because the responsibility of the protector deity is to protect all living beings, and it is the most important deity in the eyes of Indians, so it is in the middle position. ”

"But why do Indians worship the god of destruction?" Liu Songnian asked, "Isn't the God of Destruction responsible for destruction?" ”

"NONONO," the tour guide said quietly, "the God of Destruction is actually responsible for destroying those bad people, not casually killing people, the kind of people who kill without blinking, it is the God of Killing or the God of Death, not the God of Destruction." The founding god is naturally the god who created all things. ”

"Now you look at these fairy murals around you, you ignore the place where they have their breasts, they are dressed very strangely, in Hindu mythology, these fairies are dressed very strangely, if you are interested, you can take pictures." Guided tours.

Hearing this, after carefully observing the surrounding murals, the coach picked up his professional long-barrel camera and shot wildly.

"Isn't this pool, this depression a place where you went into the water? That's right, this is called the Pure Body Pool, and there are many pools like this around here, that is, the emperor will clean his body in this pool before he visits the Buddha in the Heavenly Tower. The tour guide said, "You see that there are three steps that can lead to the heavenly tower in the middle, and the left and right sides are 75-degree steps, which are very shaky, and in ancient times they were specially reserved for those ministers, and the relatively stable 45-degree ladder in the middle is the emperor's royal ladder." ”

"Don't underestimate this 65-meter Heavenly Tower, in fact, in ancient times, this height was already very remarkable." The tour guide said, saying that he led everyone to the middle of the stairs, "everyone be careful when you go up, hold steady, although it is 45 degrees, but it is also very steep, one is not careful, you and the people behind you are afraid to suffer, okay, give everyone 1 hour of free viewing time, and then we gather at the main gate to go back to the hotel." ”
