The central main tower of Little Angkor Temple represents the center of the universe and the sacred place. It is about 65 meters high from the foundation, but the vertical angle of the stairs is about 75. After climbing, you can overlook the whole view of the entire Little Angkor Temple. It is very worthwhile to climb, to appreciate the greatness of the Angkor period at that time.
but!It takes great courage to climb up to see the beautiful scenery.From a distance, these stairs seem to be nothing, but as mentioned earlier, when the main tower was built, because people who worshipped should respect the Buddha, they must not have the heart of arrogance, so the stairs climbed are almost 75~80 degrees. The width of a ladder is only about 15 cm. It must be climbed with both hands and feet, and be close to the ladder low, showing devotion.
Because this ladder is very steep, I, a person with a severe fear of heights, didn't know where to go. I actually climbed up... I regretted it when I climbed 1/3. (@@ It's terrible... steep and high, the one written in front is very calm, it's all an illusion!)
At the back, Wendy urged me, saying that there are still people waiting for us to go up, so she had to resist the fear in her heart, and step by step sideways to climb up, holding the large stone steps next to her, shaking, and suffocating to climb up quickly. That's it.Phoo~ Now that I think about it, I can still feel that height. Even Wendy said he looked down when he was waiting for me, and it felt terrifying!
▲ When taking pictures below, the locals can walk down very calmly without supporting the stone steps next to them!Really!
▲ Ready to make a big push!
▲ Just like this foreign girl, hands and feet are the safe way.
▲ Shoot down... to know how high and steep it is. ><"
▲ The members who did not come up at the time rested below, waiting for our group of people to visit the scenery above.
The five pagodas in the main temple symbolize the five peaks of Mount Xumi. The base of the platform is wide up and down and slightly narrower in the middle to form a waist, which is strong and concise, called the Xumizu form.The platform base below surrounds the stone pillar loop gallery. In addition, the cloister is also a very special architectural art feature here in Angkor Wat.
After inquiring, I learned that the cloister of Angkor Wat usually consists of three elements:
– The inner wall is carved
– Outer rows of columns/window columns
– Double roof top
These three elements show its unique beauty. With the sharing of many friends, these long galleries and dozens of columns are lined up to record the rhythm of the space for Angkor Wat!
▲ You can only learn how great the craftsmen were at that time by walking on your own!To climb up and make these pavilions.
▲ In the evening, there is a slight cool breeze blowing here.
▲ According to the book, there are 1,800 statues of the goddess Wendy Sarah in the Little Angkor Temple!
▲ Since there is only one channel to go down, we queue up one by one!
▲ The tour guide said that there was a French couple who came to play, and the wife accidentally fell to death when walking down. The husband made an escalator here, hoping that the tragedy would not happen again.
(The German gentleman behind me is relaxed and powerful. I am so frustrated...)
Usually during the itinerary of the group, we will arrange to go to Bakken Mountain to watch the sunset. I think from these photos, we can see that the tourists are also fascinated by the sunset photos here at Little Angkor Temple, and everyone sits in the most comfortable position. , There may be family, friends, and lovers by your side. After admiring the humanistic beauty of the Little Angkor Temple, look into the distance. The pink is slightly tinged with the crimson sunset, which is the reward of nature. , Cherish it!
This is a journey that will make people feel very deep, admiring the peerless craftsmanship, and also obsessed with the natural beauty that is not easy to stay in urban life. I am very fortunate that I had the opportunity to experience such an experience that year. I recommend everyone to have a chance, Angkor Wat is definitely a must-visit place in this life.
▲ It makes us can't help but watch. (This was taken with a normal camera, no photo retouching!)
▲ Carrying up his luggage, and went back with a full fu.
▲ I hope to come here again and experience the beauty of Little Angkor Temple. ^^
