Angkor Wat is considered by a majority of tourists as the most appealing place in Cambodia. Being one of the largest temple complexes in the world, Angkor Wat has long been the symbol of the country, appearing on both the national flag and national emblem. Angkor Wat is only a part of the ancient Angkor, the capital city of the Khmer Empire over a thousand years ago. Angkor is a very important archaeological site that contains many remains of heritages including temples. It reveals the rise and fall of Hinduism in the Khmer Empire and the change of its national religion to Buddhism. By visiting Angkor Wat, visitors can see the treasure of the Khmer civilisation.
