An Hindsight Into Siem Reap

Old temples, fishing village in a lake? Sounds like Siem Reap..
That was the place me and my family went to during the June holidays

The clouds of Siem Reap never fails to amaze me

Art works in the market just shows so many colour

Walk in the old market

Cute cat wrestling with shoes

Boxes of aid to the orphans in Cambodia


Fishing basket being carried home


Century old stone carvings still stand strong


Just imagine the how delicate this monuments were build

Working Asian Elephants Staring at me


The basic transport, Tuk Tuk

Plenty of insects there, such as this butterfly


Spider camouflage as the plant's fruit, ID still needed


Big Millipedes were everywhere


Stone Carvings on a river bed


Mini waterfall


Giant Tree growing on the roof of the temples


Anyone wonders how the temples support the trees weight?

Boat house in Tonle Sap lake


There were many boats squeezed into the river

These house were build to be flood-proof


Little child drinking dirty water from the lake


Catfish, am I right?


Crocodiles were kept in enclosures for their skin


Many lake house every on the lake

A boy's pet Burmese Python


River dwellers

The Mechanic of the river

Carving on the walls of every temple



Ruins of the Bantaey Kdei from the Khmer Regiment

The King's Bath, Sras Srang

Not all temples are build flat

Tree on the entrance of a temple

Sunshine Radiates the face of a temple carving


Baby Chick

Orb-weaver spiders


Monks


Naga

Buddha

The people also rely on hunt endangered animals for livelihood, they don't really have a choice as they are poor, here they have a leopard skin

Amazing waterfall


Want to experience Cambodia's history? Siem Reap is the place

Sunset In Phuket, Thailand.

These are some of the sunset pictures I took when we went to
Phuket, Thailand.




I love the light spreading effect here!



The sun hidden behind the clouds.

I practically waited until the sun was hidden behind the horizon.
Sadly i didn't get the sun with the horizon as it was very cloudy.
