today we took a tuk tuk ride to the ankor wat. this is one of the 7 wonders of the world. it is a hindu temple. this temple was amazing. on almost every square inch of the walls were covered in disigns that were carved into the sandstone.
in front of the temples there was what looked like a river but actualy was a man made moat. this moat was 3.3 miles long and 7 meters deep when they built it.
the temple was so big. it was constructed by the slaves of the king. it seemed almost impossible that such a structure could have been built with out macinary. all of the walls had carvings of godesses all with different head dresses and hair. it was amazing to climb up the steep thin stairs. it was also amazingly hard. it was cool because it wasnt like in america with all the restrictions on national parks and stuff. you could go where ever you wanted unless it was falling down. people were swimming in the moat.
me and my dad were walking on the ledge of the temple and looking around. it was like nothing i had ever seen before. it was almost undiscribeable.
