Bayon Temple Review

Bayon temple is famous for its architecture. it is one of the most beautiful temples in Cambodia. it’s a must visit if you wish to immerse yourself in history

Love this temple with carved faces that many believed is similar to King Javavarman VIi features. It's not just about faces though. it also shows facets of ordinary life in the 12th century.

Bayan Temple is one of the important representatives of the miracle of Angkor Wat. It is located in the center of Angkor Tongwang City. The corridor is 160 meters long and 140 meters long. The corridor was originally built with wooden roofs, but due to the age, only the remnants of the broken walls and the huge stone pillars are left for future generations to hang. The walls of Bayan Temple are still preserved with exquisite and vivid reliefs, war scenes, daily life, and scenery of the lakeside of Donglisa Lake. It is definitely a precious historical monument. From the outside, the Bayan Temple is a pyramid-shaped building, the highest is a round pagoda painted with gold, built on two hollow platforms. According to religious consciousness, this means that the Buddha in heaven and the people on the earth are in touch. Around 48 pagodas of different sizes, stars holding the moon, surrounded by the central pagoda. The four-faced Buddha on each pagoda has a thick nose and thick lips, soft eyes, and a smile on his face, known as the "Khmer smile."

A great semi-run down, but very important temple right in the middle of Angkor. A must visit if you head to Siem Reap. Watch out for the naughty monkeys.

Bayon Temple it is so beautiful place in the amazing kingdom of Cambodia 🇰🇭 I been there so many times before but there so amazing place I want to post pictures but to let anyone see at by yourself

Bayon is located in the center of Angkor Tongwang City, with a corridor of 160 meters east and west and 140 meters north and south. The corridor originally had wooden roofs, but due to the age, only the broken and remnant walls and huge stone pillars are left for future generations to hang. It is worth mentioning that the walls of the temple are still preserved with rich and vivid sculptures, and all the ancient war accounts, the life of ordinary people, and the scenery of the lakeside of Donglisa Lake fully reveal the scene at that time, which is definitely a precious historical monument that must be seen. The vivid murals tell a distant story. The famous Khmer smile is located on the top floor of Bayan Temple, with 54 pagodas, each of which has four faces, each with different expressions, and a total of 216 different Khmer smiles.
