Siem Reap (Khmer: ក្រុងសៀមរាប) is the capital city of Siem Reap Province in northwestern Cambodia. It is a popular resort town and a gateway to the Angkor region.
Siem Reap has colonial and Chinese-style architecture in the Old French Quarter, and around the Old Market. In the city, there are museums, traditional Apsara dance performances, a Cambodian cultural village, souvenir and handicraft shops, silk farms, rice-paddies in the countryside, fishing villages and a bird sanctuary near the Tonle Sap Lake, and a vibrant, cosmopolitan drinking and dining scene.
Siem Reap today—being a popular tourist destination—has a large number of hotels, resorts, restaurants and businesses closely related to tourism. This is much owed to its proximity to the Angkor temples, the most popular tourist attraction in Cambodia.
Angkor Wat (Wat temple) is the central feature of the Angkor UNESCO World Heritage Site containing the magnificent remains of the Khmer civilization. Angkor Wat's rising series of five towers culminates in an impressive central tower that symbolizes mythical Mount Meru. Thousands of feet of wall space are covered with intricate carving depicting scenes from Hindu mythology. The most important are the Carved Bas reliefs of the Hindu narratives. They tell a story about gods fighting demons in order to reclaim order which can only be achieved by recovering the elixir of life known as amrita. The gods and demons must work together to release it and then battle to attain it.
Angkor Thom is an inner royal city built by Jayavarman VII, the Empire's famed 'Warrior King', at the end of the 12th century and is renowned for its temples, in particular the Bayon. Other notable sites are Baphuon, Phimeanakas, The Terrace of the Elephants and The Terrace of the Leper King. The city can be accessed through 5 city gates, one on each cardinal point and the Victory Gate on the eastern wall.
A number of significant temples are dotted around Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom within the Angkor Archaeological Park, including Ta Prohm, Preah Khan, Banteay Kdei, Phnom Bakheng, Ta Keo, Ta Som, East Mebon, Pre Rup and Neak Pean. These temples may be visited along the grand circuit or the small circuit routes. Other sites are the Roluos group of temples located to the east of Siem Reap.

Named after the statue of the Hindu god Yam, which was so overgrown with moss that it looked like it had leprosy. The site is believed to have been used as a cremation place. The layout of the terrace might make you feel like you're in a maze. Do not miss the chance to see the elaborate carvings and bas-reliefs here.

Olaf in Kambodscha / Episode 7: Angkor Thom - Terrasse des Lepra-Königs / Terrace of the Leper King
The Terrace of The Leper King Angkor Thom Cambodia August 2012
Terrace of Elephants & Terrace of Leper King | ព្រះលានជល់ដំរីនិងស្តេចគម្លង់ | Siem Reap | Cambodia
The Terrace of the Elephants (Khmer: ព្រះលានជល់ដំរី) is part of the walled city of Angkor Thom, a ruined temple complex in Cambodia. The terrace was used by Angkor's king Jayavarman VII as a platform from which to view his victorious returning army. Most of the original structure was made of organic material and has long since disappeared. Most of what remains are the foundation platforms of the complex. The terrace is named for the carvings of elephants on its eastern face. The 350m-long Terrace of Elephants was used as a giant reviewing stand for public ceremonies and served as a base for the king's grand audience hall. It has five outworks extending towards the Central Square-three in the centre and one at each end. The middle section of the retaining wall is decorated with life size garuda and lions; towards either end are the two parts of the famous parade of elephants complete with their Khmer mahouts.
The Terrace of the Leper King (Khmer: ព្រះលានស្ដេចគម្លង់) is located in the northwest corner of the Royal Square of Angkor Thom, Cambodia. It was built in the Bayon style under Jayavarman VII, though its modern name derives from a 15th-century sculpture discovered at the site. The statue depicts the Hindu god Yama, the god of death. The statue was called the Leper King because discolouration and moss growing on it was reminiscent of a person with leprosy, and also because it fit in with a Cambodian legend of an Angkorian king Yasovarman I who had leprosy. The name that the Cambodians know him by, however, is Dharmaraja, as this is what was etched at the bottom of the original statue.

Reach Chey Ksatrey Neang 12 at the Terrace of the Leper King
This is an interpretation of the carvings by the Terrace of the Leper King, describing the different Preah Neang, including Reach Chey Ksatrey 12 Ang, Preah Metrey 3 Ang, etc...
Chao Kaing takes this opportunity to tell us how the different Queens ascending to throne and how the ascending King spouse was selected. He also explains what are the Nagas and where they originate from, confirming that they aren't snakes and they are able to fly...
As informed in earlier videos, I would like to thank all of you for supporting us! This video was recorded early December 2018.
It is unfortunate that some people don't understand that history is made up by mankind, especially when referring to ancient times, as there is an obvious lack of tangible proofs (i.e. documents which could have been destroyed with the fall of the Empire). Therefore, this interpretation, made by Chao Kaing, of the Khmer history is only another potential interpretation of the carvings left by our ancestors. Unlike other specialists, we aren't trying to make our ancient history fit into other's shoes/boxes (i.e. Indian history)...
We want to keep our channel and communication exchange as respectful as possible and don't force anybody to adhere to this interpretation. We won't tolerate any personal attack or insult on this channel.
Thank you for understanding.
