在吴哥枝藤蔓延、非树非庙的树庙前，千年的沉寂足以让柬埔寨丛林吞噬一切高棉艺术家的杰作。始建于公元800年的吴哥曾是高棉王国的首府，直至1430年头领们决定迁都新城金边。

Centuries of dormancy allowed the Cambodian jungle ample time to consume the work of Khmer artists in the sprawling Angkor temple complex. Built beginning in A.D. 800, Angkor was the capital of the Khmer kingdom until about A.D. 1430, when its leaders abandoned the site to establish a new capital at Phnom Penh.
