Angkor Archaeological Park

There is a place called Angkor Archaeological Park. This place is located in Cambodia and it is awesome. It is about 400 kilometers long which is really big for a building. You don't even have to do anything except look at it to be amazed because of how massive it is. It was built to represent the mythical Mount Meru. The temple Angkor Wat is dedicated to the Hindu god, Vishnu. Angkor Wat is surrounded by a moat and an exterior wall measuring 1300 meters x 1500 meters. The temple itself is 1 km square and consists of three levels surmounted by a central tower. I struggle to imagine what this place actually looks like.. Now I think This is pretty cool. Do think you can find something cooler?Image result for Angkor Archaeological Park

  2. Hi Eli, I read one like yours and if you wanted to read it it is Joey’s. I think that the temple looks more like a castle. I did some research and did you know it has almost always been in use since they first built it and it has obviously never been left to the nature. If your talking 400 kilometers that's 248.548 miles then the temple is 0.621371 of a mile! I think one thing that would be cooler is if it had hidden doors.
