Visiting Angkor's temples and a River Village in Cambodia

From Lois Friedland, About.com

Cambodian residents live close to the land, the water and their temples. Angkor, an archeological national park that stretches across 400 square meters, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visitors come to see the different capitols and temples from the Khmer empire, especially Angkor Wat and Ta Prohm. A fishing village nearby embodies life on the river for many Cambodians.

A link to the National Geographic magazine article "Angkor - Why an ancient civilization collapsed" is located in the description with the image of Angkor Wat, reflected in a nearby pool or water.
