Bayon Temple of Angkor Thom

this afternoon we went to the Bayon Temple.  This is the area that the people lived.  Angkor Wat was their Temple but they did not live there.

             on the way to Bayon

             the statutes lining the bridge, there is a moat around the whole complex, 2 sq mi

       this is the face looking out toward the bridge.  there are 3 others facing each direction

             as i have said this is how they roll.  there were 5 in the cab

       this is a story carved into the wall

     this is a lady, holding a turtle, that got to close to another person and the turtle bit his rear.  that is why he is looking back at the lady, and looking a bit upset.  

           dancing pillars,  this was on all four sides

 another on

     the guide took this one, he thought it was funny

the elephant wall
