Siem Reap: Angkor Wat

Our guide, Rethy Ly (angkorprivatetourguide.com) picked us up promptly at 9:00 a.m. We're now back at our hotel relaxing after an amazing day of sightseeing with Rethy.

What's a wat? Basically it's a monastery or temple and Cambodian kings built quite a few in the 10th and 11th centuries.

Our first stop was Angkor Wat. Let's start there.
