[travel] Ankgor Wat

[mattbell]

Ankgor Wat is every bit as awesome as everyone says it is. For those of you who don't know, it's a remarkably well preserved set of massive 13th century temple ruins in Cambodia. It's as if all the great cathedrals of Europe were put together in one area and then left to the jungle for 700 years. Restoration efforts have progressed to varying degrees, but the restorers haven't secured it all off yet, so you can literally climb around the half-ruined temples. All the stone is friction-fit, so you have to be careful.
