Banteay Srei. CAMBODIA

Banteay Srei is a 10 th century Cambodian temple, built of red sandstone, dedicated to the Hindu God Shiva. Not as huge as Angkor Thom or other Angkor sites, Banteay Srei stands out for its absolutely amazing wall carvings, to the point that this site is praised as one of the Jewels of Khmer Art.
