Angkor Wat : Michelin's recommendations

Angkor Wat: the most famous of the "City-Temples" was built in the 12C by Suryavarman II. It is designed to represent Mount Meru, mythical home of Hindu gods, whose five peaks are symbolised by the five towers of the central shrine. Why it faces west remains a mystery. Bas-reliefs of the Reamker, Mahabharata
