Carvings in the temple


Bas reliefs in Angkor Wat Posted by Picasa

Carvings (bas reliefs) run all along the outside of a wall that runs around the temple. The carvings tell about 10 different stories. Most of them are about the king, wars, and gods and demons. This picture shows the aspara women dancers.
