The Ancient City of Angkor

In the jungle outside of the town of Siem Reap, Cambodia lie the ruins of the ancient Khmer city of Angkor.  Once upon a time, this was the most impressive city in Southeast Asia--and it's still pretty cool.  The ruins are vast, interesting and, in places, colourfully overgrown.  You can easily spend a few days wandering through Angkor and not see it all.
