Jayavarman VII placed his kingdom under the protection of Buddha, whose statue was place in the central shrine of the temple, of the Budhisattva Lokeshvara whose features are represented on face-towers of the temple, covering the cardinal directions, thus extending the compassion of the king and a god he identified with over entire kingdom. Bayon is the last complex temple built by the Khmer king, it is smaller than Angkor Wat but the smiling faces, carvings, the bas-reliefs of this temple are greatest!

About Siem Reap

Siem Reap is the riverside town beside Angkor, Cambodia's vast complex of Khmer temples, with night markets, river walks and a relaxed centre.

Angkor Wat, often called the largest religious monument in the world, rises above its moat in a silhouette of lotus-bud towers that is breathtaking at sunrise. Nearby, the walled city of Angkor Thom holds the Bayon, with its more than two hundred serene stone faces, the Terrace of the Elephants and the Baphuon, while Ta Prohm is gripped by the roots of giant silk-cotton and strangler fig trees.
