Angkor Wat

I had the pleasure of visiting Angkor Wat last year. It is a beautiful and amazing place, and one that just recently received even more acclaim. New research has revealed that most of the Angkor complexes were in fact linked into a city that held a population of around 1 million people. All this was accomplished 1000 years ago, and while the rest of the worlds cities struggled with populations in the thousands there were millions living here, but the real mystery is what happened to them. A simple truth that we should not let from our own modern minds.
