Cambodia - Angkor Wat region
Na and I made a short visit to Siem Reap, with friends, to look at a few of the main temples from the ancient Khmer city which is often called Angkor Wat [after the main temple]. Na discovered that her native language from NE Thailand, Khmer, is well understood by the people of this region.
The city of Siem Reap is much changed from the dusty little city I first visited in 2001...it has become a gathering place for the Backpackers of the World, and not all of the development seems to me like progress.
