Angkor Heart of an Asian Empire (New Horizons) /anglais
Cambodia is home to an ancient city. For over five centuries Angkor, ancient seat of the Buddhist god-kings, was the capital of the Khmer empire. Abandoned in the 15th century, this city was swallowed up by the jungle and almost forgotten until, four centuries later, it was uncovered by European explorers. This book traces the origins of these mysterious ruins and tells the story of their rediscovery through documentary photographs, maps and illustrations.
