We have already talked about how little people who haven't visited Angkor actually know about Angkor. At least I had a very limited idea of the place. I had seen pictures, read some blogs, but I visualized Angkor as one single temple, which in my imagination was a hybrid of Angkor Wat, Bayon, and Ta Prohm. I wasn't aware that all these are three completely different temples, and was completely oblivious of the fact that there are countless other temples and dramatic structures besides these three.
