As we step inside, you will be greeted by a magnificent display of statues, carvings, and other relics that hail from the glorious Angkor era. This was a time when the Khmer Empire reigned supreme, and the Angkor Wat temple complex stood as a testament to their architectural and engineering prowess.

Now, let me take you on a tour of the museum's different sections. One of the highlights is the interview area, where you can learn about the lives and contributions of the artists and craftsmen who dedicated their talents to creating these masterpieces.

As during the Angkor Wat period, Buddhism was actually prominent and influential especially during the last King era so I wasn’t doubt that there are many statues related to Buddha.

The interior design by great architect that they have many sit here tourists easily enjoy the video slide.

The details they show like the different materials and techniques used in the statues and carvings, are super fascinating. From what I understand by reading the article, the most of the statues here were crafted using a wide variety of materials - stone (ថ្មភក់), gold, and even wood in some cases. And the level of skill and artistry is just mind-blowing.

The Angkor Museum also celebrates the triumphs and achievements of the Khmer people. Here, you'll find displays showcasing the advanced irrigation systems, the intricate stone carvings, and the breathtaking architectural wonders that have made Angkor a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

By the way, I just finished my assignment work, so I decided to go to the Royal Palace this morning as I had nothing else to do and I really miss the pigeons there. They were really friendly and I remember going there with my friends. Today, though, I go alone because I want to experience new things on my own. I travel to the Royal Palace, where I've already bought coffee, and I go straight to the area, the gate-findin them. I also buy them some amount of corn from a lovely child.

It was lovely to speak with some pigeons, and the young boy he was such a fine kid that he raise his brother and sister by selling corn as to support his family.
