[Cambodia] A temple in the sky! A spectacular view of Preah Vihear 🏯✨

Located near the border between Cambodia and Thailand, Preah Vihear Temple is a Khmer ruins that stands on a cliff and is a World Heritage Site🏔️🛕 It has a history older than Angkor Wat, and from the top of the mountain at an altitude of about 500m, you can enjoy a magnificent view of the Cambodian land🌿⛰️✨ This temple was built between the 9th and 12th centuries and is a sacred place dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva🙏✨ It was built in the same Khmer architectural style as the Angkor ruins, and at the end of the long approach, there are gates and shrines with magnificent carvings🎨🛕 The view from the innermost sanctuary (central shrine) is particularly spectacular! 🌍✨ The vast view overlooking the cliffs is so beautiful that it deserves to be called the "Temple in the Sky" 💙 Preah Vihear is also a place with a long history of territorial disputes with Thailand, but now it is peacefully open for sightseeing and is becoming popular as a hidden Cambodian attraction 📸✨ Its charm is its mysterious atmosphere wrapped in silence, which is different from Angkor Wat 🌿 The general way to access it is to climb the mountain road from the Cambodian side by car or motorcycle 🚗💨 From halfway, you can also enjoy a thrilling ride up the steep slope on a 4WD truck or motorcycle! 🎢🌄 Preah Vihear, which has a spectacular view and history that is a little different from the Angkor ruins 🏰✨ Why not visit the temple in the sky surrounded by nature while feeling the mystery of the Khmer civilization? 🌏💫 #Cambodia #tripOverseas travel
