After seeing Angkor Vat and Angkor Thom, I thought I had already seen the best of the Angkor temples and it will really be hard to still be impressed by another of these khmer ancient sites.
But I have to say that Preah Khan was a most pleasant surprise. I was not expecting much. Thought that this is just another one of those Khmer temples. But Preah Khan stands on its own as one of the better preserved temples with fine carvings and stonework. Its ancient structures also reminds you of the temples of Greece and Egypt with a lot of pillar and columns. Preah Khan which may have been a Buddhist university is one of Angkor's largest complexes.
