When I was at the California Science Museum in Los Angeles, I was able to see the exhibit- Angkor-The Lost Empire of Cambodia. Angkor was the capital of the Khmer Kingdom which lasted from 9th to the 15th century. By the late 16th century, it was no more and experts have been trying to figure out what happened. It was really cool to see artifacts from it:
What awesome artifacts.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great exhibit! So cool!
ReplyDeleteThat was an interesting exhibit you saw and I enjoyed looking at the photos of the statues.
ReplyDeleteYou can definitely see the Asian influence, those are something different.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great exhibit. Angkor has a fascinating history - I also can't help but notice the combined influences from the north and west (e.g., India, China, Nepal, etc.).
ReplyDeleteAn exhibit I'd love to see. Beautiful.

Siem Reap was one of my favourite places in the world - the town as much as Angkor Wat.

ReplyDeleteIt's amazing to think about the artists who sculpted these statues so many, many years ago. Looks like a wonderful museum exhibit.
