Main temple of Angkor Wat (also called Bakan). Angkor Wat is the largest Hindu temple complex in the world. The temple was built by King Suryavarman II in the early 12th century and was the capital of the Khmer Empire. It was originally Hindu, then became Buddhist. It has become a symbol of Cambodia, appearing on its national flag, and is the country's prime attraction for visitors.
