If there is one temple you might recognize (other than the iconic Angkor Wat), it is Ta Prohm. Made famous (or at least identifiable) from the film Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, Ta Prohm is one of the most important temples at Angkor due to the fact that it was erected as a Buddhist monastery and university. Unlike most Angkorian temples, Ta Prohm has been left in a similar condition in which it was found. The incredible Spong trees grow over the stones to create an eerie, mesmerizing feeling that you are absolutely not in the 21st century. Definitely a crowd-pleaser, this one.
Andrew!!
Koreans EVERYWHERE. Seriously, could not escape them.
