The Angkor Wat Temple complex in Cambodia is the largest religious monument in the world. It was originally constructed as a Hindu temple for the Khmer Empire and gradually transformed into a Buddhist temple toward the end of the 12th century.

 Its perfection in composition, balance, proportions, reliefs and sculpture make it one of the finest monuments in the world.

It is a series of elevated towers, covered galleries, chambers, porches and courtyards on different levels linked by stairways.
