Angkor Thom - Baphoun @ SiemReap

We head to Baphoun after Bayon, Baphoun is build in the 11th century. There is a few tiers which part of the building was closed due to the reconstruction. We went around the whole Baphoun compound. It is special in a way because this temple is originally a Hindu temple dedicated to the Hindu God Shiva, however later on in the 15th century it was converted to a Buddhist temple.

This place is badly damaged, however the general shape and designs are still visible. I hope the restoration work doesn't spoil the original carvings and ambience.
