Kingdom of Cambodia
Banteay Srei is a beautiful 10th-century Hindu Temple built largely of a red sandstone with magnificent intricate carvings like wood. Banteay Srei which means Citadel of Women or Citadel of Beauty is probably related to the intricacy of the carvings surrounding the structures. It is said that the reliefs on this temple are so delicate that they could only have been carved by the hand of a woman.
Tons of beautiful set of photos you'll see ahead, so enjoy!
Ta Prohm Temple, built in the mid-12th century is the undisputed capital of the Kingdom of the Trees'. Stones enveloped with moss and gigantic roots snakes through the ruins make it ethereal in aspect and conjures up a romantic aura. No wonder the haunted charm of the place captured the attention of many most especially Miss Angelina Jolie.
Angkor Wat, means City Temple, is the world's largest religious building and has become a symbol of Cambodia. The temple is admired for the grandeur and harmony of the architecture, its extensive bas-reliefs and for the numerous guardians spirits adorning its walls.
Oh, I also gained a lot of new friends! Amazing draping skills and mix of bold colors. I love how my outfits blended as always. Kingdom of Cambodia is so inspiring in so many ways.
The floating villages of Chong Khneas are rich with life and overflowing with culture. With more than 5,000 residents living along the waterway, this is by far the best way to get an up close and experience the beauty of local Khmers and Vietnamese. Kingdom of Cambodia is truly a remarkable place to explore!
Layering in a thrifted long dress (under), sister's woven tribal skirt (over), Topshop ballet flats, LV bag, mom's vintage Fendi shades, sister's very old chain body bag, mom's silver bib necklace from Tibet and twisted coral and gold necklaces I keep stealing from her since I was in 5th grade. I'm really digging the craftsmanship of the coral.

WOW dear...you really blended in I love how you incorporated your outfit with the scenery and all...the temples in Cambodia are magnificent noh??? they are so beautiful...nothing compared to the ruins here in Thailand...
That is something Cambodia has to offer aside from the free gambling business which Thais are enjoying crossing the border...

These are definately one of the most gorgeous pictures of Cambodia I've ever seen! Such gorgeousness!
lovely,lovely pictures. Made me want to visit Cambodia.
Hey you! Wish you a blessed new year too!
Awesome layering here! I also love it how the carvings and the built surface has eroded and weathered to a point that sometimes it looks like a natural rocky cliff face.
I think haunting charm was the perfect way to describe this! It' looks amamzing, and so serene. Is it always so devoid of toursits?
Kainggit ka girl!! <3
Stunning photos! I love the feel of being immersed in a rich culture! Must take a trip soon!
Happy New Year!
