Impressive but not nearly as impressive as the temples in India. In need of some restoration. Not clear why everyone is so impressed with this particular temple complex as there are much spectacular temples elsewhere.

The temple is very large and was not enough time to discover for one full day if you want to go in details. i love the apsaras, the carvings and the lay-out of the temple is amazing. Surrounded with the large ponds and greenery make this temple more exotic and sexy to photograph. have a visit in the early morning...

Massive, but nearly washed away. Very disappointing and throngs of tourists.
It really is incredible and something you must experience in person. Pictures do not do it justice.
The grandeur and splendor of this World Wonder never ceases to amaze me!
