Angkor Wat is special

Full of life. A place where men built on enormous scale and nature, smiling, kept on.
We kept to quiet paths. Crossing rivers of ants, passing lakes of moss, avoiding other visitors. Seeking quiet.
Through a break in the outer wall: the moat. Men fishing, a family gathering seeds. A monk chanting seeks quiet.
Angkor Wat is special.

Unfortunately, to visit Angkor Wat you must stay in Siem Reap.  Siem Reap is reminiscent of Lake George on a July 4th weekend.  Been there, done that.
