yang kat cerita TOMB RAIDER (tak ingat titile)

i love the ancient temples and ruin very much...

will try to load it this week.

travel tips....

kat the major temples in siem reap,selalu nya da small makan restaurants near by,
susah nak carik halal food.
i look at the menu,mostly ada pork.
it is a good idea kalo you bring tuna (ayam brand or what have you yang dalam tin kecik) i bought roti with cheese and makan at the restaurant with my tuna yang i brought along.ni kira ok jugak lah dari tak ada makan terus.

one more thing,some tempat makan dorang tarak fridge.
when they give you the cheese...do check before you makan.
i open my cheese...sekali sua ada mould.
so i mintak tukar...even then the cheese punya colour dah macam kalor orange sikit.

kalo makan waktu malam...do check before you masuk mulut.

what i see.....

i was on the road at 7 in the morning.i saw this girl with dirty clothes and no slippers
with a sack behind her back.dia tengah collect plastic bottles in the bin.
ai yoh.....quite depressing.
but this is life.


on some roads...you see small boys and girls pakai seluar aje roaming the streets with their friends.

i'm not use to this kind of sight.

bayangkan time perang dulu.... so sedih

at some temple,small boys and girls around 5 years old,dorang baby sit their baby brothers and sisiters.baby nya tak pakai baju.

they were not begging,they were just sitting around.

i took some photos and gave them 500 riels (U$1.20)
the kids are so cute.

deaf,
the batu is very besar and heavy.....very fascinating.
the temple pulak very high ada 5 storey or higher  i think.

tak ada giant crane when they built the temple centuries ago,and yet they could built one giant complex structure.

sama jugak ngan pyramid in egypt.egypt jauh sangat....tak mampu terus nak ka sana.

VERY VERY BEST MY BRUDDA ......kalo ada tiket murah,i would love to go again.

i was at this temple about 6 or 7 storey high....when you look on the horizon....
you see only the forrest.

imagine centuries ago.....

how they carried those giant block of rocks to construct the temples.
i just sat down there mesmerised by the beauty.

photos will come soon.
