360 video: Monkey Attack at Angkor Wat, Siem Reap, Cambodia

This iconic temple complex is an absolute must-see. Being the largest religious monument in the world, it is a wonderful showcase of grandeur.

Angkor Temple is the most stunning and the best-preserved temple in the complex. It was built at the end of the 12th century by the Khmer King Suryavarman II, probably as his funerary temple. The temple represents Mount Meru, which is a sacred mountain and the centre of all universes according to Hindu mythology.

The temple is considered to be the masterpiece of Khmer architecture as well as the centre of Khmer civilisation. It was also listed as a UNESCO monument in 1992. No wonder it became a national symbol and you can find it on the national flag of Cambodia.

You have to carry your ticket with you at all times because you will be checked upon entering every temple. Don't forget to dress respectfully. If you want to get around the whole complex, you are going to need to hire a vehicle - a bicycle, van or a tuk-tuk.
