Description

For over five centuries Angkor was the capital of the great Khmer Empire. Abandoned in the 15th century, it was gradually swallowed up by the jungle and almost forgotten until, four centuries later, it was uncovered by European explorers. Here is the thrilling story of the rediscovery of these important, mysterious and beautiful ruins in today's Cambodia.
