06吴哥窟歌词完整版
“It is of such extraordinary construction
that it is not possible to describe it with a pen.”
These are the words of António da Madalena, a
Portuguese monk who, in 1586, was one of the
first Westerners to marvel at the magnificent
temple of Angkor Wat. In the years since, visitors
have been awed by the 500-acre site’s grand
towers, detailed bas-relief decorations, and
the impressive moat surrounding it all.
The name Angkor Wat, which means
Temple City, is a fitting description
for what is thought to be the largest
religious monument in the
world.
Dating back to the early 12th century,
Angkor Wat was constructed during the
reign of the Khmer king Jayavarman II. Built
from sandstone blocks by 300,000 workers
and 6,000 elephants, it is considered the finest
example of Khmer architecture. The main
temple, which Jayavarman dedicated to the
Hindu deity Vishnu, is thought to represent
Mt. Meru, home of the Hindu gods. While
Angkor Wat was eventually transformed
into a Buddhist temple, to this day it continues
to serve not only as a spiritual and religious
center for the Cambodian people, but also as
a symbol of their country. Of course, it is also
the top destination for tourists visiting the
Southeast Asian kingdom.
Travelers planning to visit Angkor Wat
usually base themselves in the town of Siem
Reap, four miles south of the main temple.
Since the site can get very crowded with
tourists, especially during peak season from
November to March, it’s best to rise before dawn
and be there when the grounds open around
5:30 a.m. The humidity is also the lowest
at this hour. Take your time exploring Angkor
Wat—there’s so much to take in. Chances are,
you’ll be at a loss for words, just like António da
Madelana.
