Angkor Wat

Angkor Wat
infamous temple complex in Cambodia
largest religious structure known on earth
spreads two hundred and forty-eight square miles
there are seventy-two temples inside this complex

This Hindu temple was dedicated to their god Vishu
designed to represent Mt Meru, home of the devas in mythology
King Jayavarman VII changed the temple to Buddism
after Vishu had failed him

Some believe Angkor Wat was constructed in one night
by our divine architect
