Angkor is one of the most important archaeological sites in South-East Asia. It covers over some 400 sq. km and contains the magnificent remains of the different capitals of the Khmer Empire from the 9th to the 15th century. These include the famous Temple of Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom, and the Bayon Temple with its countless sculptural decoration. For hundreds of years, the lost city of Angkor was itself a legend. Cambodian peasants living on the edge of the thick jungle around the Tonle Sap lake reported findings which puzzled the French colonialists who arrived in Indo-China in the 1860s. The peasants said they had found “temple built by gods or by giants.”ฉันใช้กูเกิ้ลทรานเสลดในการแปล
