This is the 200 meter long causeway leading to Baphoun, another highlight of Angkor Thom. The temple was built in the middle of the 11th century by - take a deep breath - Udayadityavarman II. The French had already initiated badly-needed restoration of this temple when, in the early 1970s, they were forced to leave. But they are back now - which is good news for the temple but bad news for us - as no one is allowed in during this major restoration. |
