A Quiet Ruin in the Forest | Banteay Kdei Temple

Banteay Kdei, a Buddhist temple nestled quietly within the Angkor archaeological site, was built in the 12th century by King Jayavarman VII. Its moss-covered stone corridors and goddess statues create a mystical space that feels like a timeless art gallery! Especially during sunset, the soft light envelops the stone walls, deepening the ethereal atmosphere.
With relatively fewer tourists, this site is perfect for those who want to savor the breath of history in tranquility.
