The Queen's Palace is my favorite temple in the Angkor monument group, where Shiva and Vishnu are worshipped. It is a small monastery 400 meters long with a wall. It is a small but highly artistic monument. It is worth visiting slowly. The outer walls of the Queen's Palace are made of red sandstone and red clay. When entering from the East Gate, Linga-shaped stone pillars are arranged on both sides of the red clay worship road. The best time to visit the Queen's Palace is in the morning when the monument is illuminated by sunlight, which is like a burning flame. Although we went to the Queen's Palace in the afternoon, there was a heavy rain on the way. After the rain, the bright red color of the Queen's Palace became more striking and was said to be the most beautiful moment. The Queen's Palace is full of exquisite carvings. One of the walled towers and its carvings are considered the most beautiful. They are printed on 50 Riel notes. The sculpture traces depicting Indian mythology here are deep, and the beauty of sculpture is outstanding even in Angkor monuments, and the preservation is excellent. There is also a little story about the Queen's Palace. There was once a writer, Andrea Marlowe, who stole the statue of the goddess on the wall of the palace and was arrested when he was transported abroad. Later, he wrote the novel King's Way with this incident, and the statue became a well-known statue on the record. The statue is called the Mona Lisa of the East. Now, in order to protect the historic sites, the central hall has pulled up ropes, although long-distance viewing, still feel that the beauty of this place is suffocating, should be the ancient poem quot; there are beautiful women, living in the valley .

    Banteay Srei Temple is built largely of red sandstone, a medium that lends itself to the elaborate decorative wall carvings which are still observable today. The buildings themselves are miniature in scale, unusually so when measured by the standards of Angkorian construction.These factors have made the temple extremely popular with tourists, and have led to its being widely praised as a"precious gem", or the "jewel of Khmer art".

    Banteay Srei is a 10th-century Cambodian temple dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva. Located in the area of Angkor Archaeological Park, it lies near the hill of Phnom Dei, 25 km north-east of the main group of temples that once belonged to the medieval capitals of Yasodharapura and Angkor Thom.

    The Queen's Palace, located in Siem Reap, Cambodia, is one of the three major temples in Cambodia, known as the "Pearl of Angkor Monuments". It was built in 967 AD and was built in 1002. The Queen's Palace is one of the most exquisite works of ancient Khmer sculptures. It is built for red sandstone, colorful, exquisite reliefs, and the beauty of women's feminine and soft. It is one of the most unique and exquisite buildings in Angkor's monuments. The main building of the Queen's Palace has three central towers and a large library, all of which are covered with exquisite carvings, and it can be said that every inch is a gem of classical carving art.

    Banteat Srei Temple is located a bit further away from siem Reap city. but it is another a must destination because the sculpture of the temple is very unique from other temples. It took around 30min to get there by car.
