Bayon Temple

Here the towers are dominated by the faces of Buddha. Most of the many towers have four faces looking in four directions.

The entrance is through one of the towers.

Deb took a Tuk Tuk ride around the ruins.

The faces are very compelling.

In profile, the faces are very serene.

Nose to Nose


Each tower was meant to represent one of the provinces in the empire.


Our guide identified this face as the happiest and the most famous,
perhaps because it is at a perfect level for a Kodak moment.


Just as we were leaving, monks were coming in.
