Preah Vihear Temple

Preah Vihear Temple was listed as World Heritage on July 7 2008. It is considered as the most prominent temple in Cambodia in term of its sculptures, duration and mountainous location.

The first time I have seen this temple I was so excited and impressive It was built on the top of the mountain. I spent around half an hour to reach to the top. I was wondering how could Cambodian ancestors build such a wonderful temple on the high mountain. How could they life the hug rock and did the scuplture. In addition there are many temples to have a look at this mountain; it is various from one to another. We needed one or two hours to see everthing over because there are many interesting places to visit. Furthermore, the climate was so good. It was a bit cold and warm in the morning. While I was standing on the top of the mountain, I felt like I was standing on the sky because the fogs were everywhere around me. Finally, I was so enjoyable with the view from the top. It looked very nice.

Preah Vihear Temple was the most enjoyable place for everyone to visit, particularly Cambodian. I would suggest everyone to visit Preah Vihear Temple at least one time.
