Present day Cambodia is the successor state to the

mighty Khmer empire which once ruled vast swathes
of land across what is now Laos, Thailand and

Vietnam. The remains of this empire can be seen at

the fabled temples of Angkor – monuments that are

rarely matched in scale and grandeur anywhere else

in the world. Angkor Wat is the ultimate expression
of Khmer genius.
