Describe a historical site you like the most.
You should say,
Where it is
What you can see there
Why you like it
And explain your feelings about it.

When it comes to the historical sites I like the most, the first one that pops up in my mind is the Angkor Wat. It is located in Siem Reap, Cambodia. For many years, the Angkor Wat is totally isolated from the Western World, and large thick jungles cover this area. Until 1860 it was firstly discovered by a French botanist and it gradually came into public eyes. The biggest temples are Angkor Wat and Bayon Wat and they are the flagships at the Angkor. They represent the highest achievement of Khmer temple architecture. The temple consists of a towering complex of terraces and small buildings that are arranged in a series of three diminishing stories and surmounted by five towers. The walls are covered with carved reliefs that illustrate Hindu mythology， principally scenes relating to the god Vishnu， to whom the temple was dedicated. In the Bayon Wat, there are 54 pagodas located among 3 different platforms with 4 smiling faces of Buddha heading to each direction, and these 216 smiling faces are the famous and magnificent Smile of Khmer. After I visit Angkor Wat, it did leave me such a deep impression. So many years passed, miraculously, it suffered very little structural damage! To be honest, much of the “Lost City” of Angkor is still a mystery, as Cambodia is becoming more developed, it worth more researches and protection before being submerged by the new civilization.
