Travel destination: Asia, Cambodia Time: May 2007 Traveler: Wu Xinyi In that lush green forest, the kingdom that had been sleeping for thousands of years began to bloom. At that moment I was attracted by her smile, at that moment I was trapped by her appearance, at that moment I fell into her arms without knowing it. Angkor, my long-cherished holy land, I finally stand in front of you - Angkor Wat, listed as one of the seven wonders of the world, is located in Siem Reap, Cambodia, about 310 kilometers north of Phnom Penh, attracting travelers from all over the world. Rushing like a duck. Angkor Wat is the collective name for the Angkor monuments, and the entire Angkor temple complex is divided into "Da Wai", "Small Wai" and "Peripheral". "Dawei" refers to the Great Angkor Thom, and "Xiaowei" refers to Angkor Wat, which is also the Little Angkor. Legend has it that mortals live in the Great Angkor, while gods live in the Little Angkor.
The little Angkor in my eyes is extremely exquisite and shocking. Angkor Wat is surrounded by a moat, and the reliefs and carvings in the corridors of the outer city wall are beautiful and moving. There are ladders on all four sides of the tower at Angkor Wat, and the reliefs in the outer corridors of the central temple are exquisite. The content is mainly about the legend of the Hindu god Vishnu, the most famous of which is "churning the sea of ??milk". There is a sculpture of "churning the sea of ??milk" at the south entrance of Angkor Angkor. On the walls, in the corridors, under the sun, in dark corners, no matter where you go, you can see the plump figure of the goddess. The essence of Angkor is undoubtedly the Bayon Temple. The "Khmer smile" that I will never forget is here. From a distance, it looks like a mountain of gravel, but that is the pinnacle of Angkor architecture. Ta Prohm Temple is another exquisite attraction of Angkor. The most attractive thing is that the huge ancient trees and dilapidated ancient temples are intertwined, relying on each other and supporting each other for hundreds of years.
I vaguely remember Tony Leung in "In the Mood for Love", standing in a desolate and tragic ruins, caressing a small hole and telling his inner secrets. This is Angkor Wat, and this is in Cambodia.
Outbound tourism
In the past 12 years, from Thailand in 1988 to Australia in 1999 (opened to Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou in 1999, and fully opened in 2006), There are only a handful of travel destinations to choose from when traveling abroad. However, from 1999 until December 11, 2007, when the United States and China signed the "Memorandum of Understanding between the Government of the People's Republic of China and the Government of the United States of America to Facilitate Travel by Chinese Tour Groups to the United States and the United States," it lasted ten years. At this time, the number of tourist destination countries (regions) that Chinese citizens can travel abroad in groups has increased to 87. At present, China has become Asia's largest source of tourists. At the same time, it has also become a rapidly emerging source of tourists in the world.
Travel Guide
Transportation: There are three types of transportation in Angkor: one is to charter a car, and the price varies according to the distance. The second is a type of motorcycle called TukTuk. Most tourists rent this type of TukTuk. The third is to rent a bicycle, which is a good choice.
Accommodation: Hotels in Cambodia are generally divided into two categories, one is hotels and restaurants, and the other is guest houses. Mainly concentrated in the capital Phnom Penh.
Food: "Bulafok" is a common dish made with fish as the basic material. It tastes particularly good when dipped in a sauce called Tuktray with spices and peanuts. "Hao Mo Ke" is a famous dish that uses coconut milk as seasoning and is eaten wrapped in banana leaves. There are also Amok (fish in sour soup + chicken in sour soup) with a plate of vegetables and rice, and a unique snack called fried poisonous spider.
