Following in the footsteps of Angelina Jolie, I have scaled the walls of Angkor Wat, climbed through the undergrowth, happened upon ruins and dodged the hoards of tourists that plague Siem Reap. I have not yet come upon any pots of gold but viewing the temples is prize enough.
With monkeys in the trees and elephants ferrying those willing to pay its all very atmospheric and you can see why its so popular with Hollywood executives.
Angkor and its surrounds are rightfully a source of pride to Cambodians so much so they even get centre stage on the country's flag. Which got me thinking; if we were to change our flag what would we have on it instead? - answers on a post card please!
