Banteay Kdei

This 12th century temple is accessed through this gate.

image

After a long walk through the jungle.

image

You finally get a glimpse through the trees.

image

Then as you get closer you see it peering out at you.

image

Guarded by ferocious lions.

image

With creepy faces watching your every move.

image

The building looks haunted.

image

It is coated in cobwebs.

image

And looks like it could collapse on you at any moment.

image

It is covered by dancers capable of turning their feet 90 degrees without even moving their hips.

image

Even it’s fake windows are barred.

image

Long passageways are blocked by rubble.

image

Trees grow right out of the building!

The entranceway looks like a deep, dark cave.

And some of the doorways are too narrow for any living person.

And finally on the way out you find…the janitor’s closet!
