Ta Prohm

Jayavarman VII (the guy who built Angkor Wat) built this temple for his mother...the most amazing thing about this temple is that unlike the other temples in Angkor Ta Prohm was not cleaned and restored. There is actually a small debate going on because the GIANT TREES and GIANT ROOTS have taken over the entire temple and are both supporting and destroying the temple. People think that in ten years, Ta Prohm will be completely destroyed. =(

More reason to visit!
