The entrance to Angkor Wat, Angkor, Cambodia. At the end of our first day of touring temples our last stop was to Angkor Wat, the most famous temple on the site. It is huge. Approaching it was similarly awe-inspiring as approaching the Taj Mahal. It is impressive and huge. Words cannot describe.

Many of the temples at Angkor would not be for people with a serious fear of heights. Often part of the tour involved climbing up steps that were almost vertical. At Angkor Wat there is even a railing to brace yourself as you descend the precariously steep stairway.
