Bayon Temple, Siem Reap: Smiles in Stone

#summervacay

In the heart of Angkor Thom lies Bayon Temple, famous for its towering stone faces that seem to smile from every angle. Built in the 12th century, it’s a peaceful yet powerful place, full of history and mystery.
As you wander through its narrow corridors and detailed carvings, you’ll see scenes of ancient life markets, battles, festivals all carved into the stone. The real magic happens up top, where over 200 serene faces watch over the temple grounds.
Bayon isn’t just a templeit’s a quiet encounter with the past, wrapped in stone and sunlight.
