Angkor Wat Temple complex looks particularly beautiful silhouetted against the sun rising in the east. It’s worth waking early in the wee hours of the morning.

Beautiful colours and reflections. Even I would get up early for that, I think.:)
Tee-hee, Ann! You make me laugh. Don’t worry, I’d be ringing you up and insisting you splash water on your face to wake up for the sunrise. Cheers! :-)))

Hah, Martin, I kept telling myself that very thing, along with mutterings of “this had better be good!” Thanks a bundle, Martin!

This is breath taking, what an incredible sight.
Thank you, EagleHunter. Angkor Wat does not disappoint. People had told me it was awe-inspiring…Angkor lived up to their praise.

how magnificent, and yet also very imposing and rather awe inspiring….
Thank you, dear Wendy! There is also such an air of mystery to those aged ruins. Difficult to capture on a memory chip but the pervasive presence of the past positively percolates from that powerful place (I’m running out of more words beginning with a ‘P’). :-)))

Magnificent sight!
Yes, Trish, Angkor is magnificent, offering camera angles and mystery around every corner or through each doorway one passes.
