Seeing is Believing

You really got to see Angkor Wat to experience its majesty and grandeur. The sun burn was worth it! My only regret was that I didn't own a SLR camera, cos' every spot was awe-inspiring, and yet strangely mysterious.

ruins of Bayon -very Indiana Jones

Ta-Phohm (my fave pic)

Apart from the grand Angkor Wat however, there were other temples worth seeing. Bayon was my favorite with Buddha-ish statues all around and Ta-Phohm had the tree-in-temple feel, the site felt like a labyrinth.

But away from the attractions, most of the time, I felt like a rich bastard (as in a female version). The people are ridden with post-war traumas ie. Landmines, poverty and it is heartbreaking to see landmine victims who are kids begging on the streets. I read somewhere there is someone being blown up everyday in Cambodia by landmines, and there are about 2 million landmines yet to be discovered. One in five kids does not survive past their childhood.
War really SUCKS.
