Jill, how does it compare, if any, with Ankor temples of cambodia?

Pyramids and archeaological sites of Mexico
Hi Ting, Very interesting question! Ankor is but one site of great complexity and size and brilliance and symboilises the greatness of Khmer Empire. On it´s own it takes at least 3-10 days to see the main sites in any depth and do it justice. The significant MesoAmerican sites of Mexico and Central America are numerous, scattered all throughout different countries. Of those that I have seen so far (Tenotitlan, Teoithicuan, Tula, Filo Bobos, El Tajin) are not as large in size as individual plans as Ankor though that´s probably because they haven´t been fully excavated - and when they have it´s a constant battle with the jungle encroaching them. But I have yet to visit the best and most magnificant sites (Monte Alban, Palenque, Copan, Tikal) so I´ll tell you my impressions then!...Wikipedia is an excellent source for more info...
