Angkor: Splendors of the Khmer Civilization

Between the 9th and 13th centuries, Indochina saw the rise of one of the most powerful and prolific empires in its history, that of the Khmer. Their most amazing creations were their temples and a great network of canals across the Angkor plain in Cambodia.

This volume, full of information that will help readers put the beautifully illustrated artwork and architectural structures into their historical context, presents the Khmer civilisation through in-depth analysis of the historic sites on the Angkor plain, also providing well-designed archaeological itineraries, accompanied by abundant photographs and detailed maps.
