Ta Prohm Temple is the most attractive one
among those temples of Cambodia. Many movies were filmed there, such as the
Indiana Jones, Tomb Raider, and the Two Brothers. This temple is about the
Mahayana of the 12th century. It was one of the largest
architectures of that time. It basically stays in the same image as it was
discovered by the first group of French explorers. Although most of the temples
of Cambodia are under the huge protection project, the grasses are cleaned and
this temple is cruelly treated by the nature, and some parts of the temple are
in ruins.
Inside the temple are narrow corridors and
broken stone sculptures that look like a maze. Some places are tied by ropes
because they may collapse. The trees embrace the stone sculptures, which
provides perfect scenes for you to take some unbelievable pictures. According
the records, it required 80 000 people to maintain this temple!
This solemn temple witnessed a poetic
transmigration: the human at first conquer and remake the nature, then the
nature subjugate the human and destroy all.
