Feb 12 – Siem Reap

We are taking it a little easy on our last day in Cambodia. We are getting laundry done and went to the Angkor National Museum to see the exhibits related to the amazing temples, cities and palaces we’ve seen here.

The Gallery of 1,000 Buddha Images reflects the past and present of Cambodia starting in the 12th century and provided Buddha stories and statues of every sort.

Other galleries focused on the history of the Khmer Civilization, their beliefs through history and the great Khmer Kings of the 9th through 14th centuries. Besides statues there were movies and maps – very well done I thought. 

Other than that we swam, walked a bit, ate in the cool area called Pub Street and prepared for our departure.
