Angkor Wat: A Creator of Religious Art

Religion and Art Both of these themes bring original feelings that many of us can not find in other aspects of life. What they really have in common is that they show the identity of human thinking and what can be created from it. When given the work of studying the religious "art form", I was not only showing their spiritual devotion but also the most influential place of worship that showed their creative ambition I wanted to deeply explore one of them. This is the case of Angkor Wat, and I encourage you to follow and explore its background.

Angkor Wat, meaning the city of the temple! That's it! Covering an area of ​​about 500 acres, Angkor Wat is one of the biggest religious places in history as well as the biggest temple in Angkor! The total area of ​​temples including moats is 5 kilometers in length and 3 kilometers in width, or the total area is about 3 square kilometers. I worked six everyday jobs with six elephants and countless slaves to build Angkor Wat! This is the first time I saw this magnificent temple across the pontoon. Let's share tickets and join. These scenes show you a moat of 650 feet wide which is more than 3 miles long. This moat is 13 feet deep and it stabilizes the foundation of the temple and prevents the groundwater from becoming too high or too low. Another eye-catching visual effect is the central tower 213 feet high in the temple surrounded by 4 small towers. Everything you see in temples is strange

How grand is that? Angkor Wat is the world's largest religious building. Compared with 1,000 other temples in the Angkor Archaeological Park (UNESCO World Heritage Site), Angkor Wat covers an area of ​​up to 1.6 million square meters. This is twice the size of Disneyland. It also uses the most sandstone - 6 - 10 million pieces. Each weight weighs about 5 tons, which is the same as car weight. Indeed, it took over 35 years to have 300,000 workers and 6,000 elephants using these blocks to build Angkor Wat.
