Preah Vihear Temple: A UNESCO World Heritage site in Cambodia

Описание к видео Preah Vihear Temple: A UNESCO World Heritage site in Cambodia

Preah Vihear is a 9th century temple complex atop a 500 meter high mountain on the border between Cambodia and Thailand. Following the temple's designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1998, Thailand claimed that part of the access route to the temple complex lay within its borders, making the temple inaccessible from Cambodia. A dispute - briefly violent - ensued between the two countries. In 2013, the International Court of Justice ruled in favor of Cambodia's claim, and the site was reopened to visitors.
