Located at the heart of the Angkor complex, the Bayon temple is one of Cambodia's most fascinating monuments. Built in the 12th century during the reign of King Jayavarman VII, its 54 towers are adorned with gigantic faces carved in stone. Each of these faces bears a serene and enigmatic expression, probably representing the bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara or the king himself in divine form. The temple is also famous for its detailed bas-reliefs depicting scenes of everyday Khmer life and historical battles. Strolling through its galleries and observing these stone gazes that seem to follow visitors is a unique and mystical experience. Surrounded by lush greenery, the Bayon exudes a timeless atmosphere of spirituality and past grandeur. It's a must-see for anyone exploring the wonders of Angkor.
