Dancing in the Hall of Dancers - Preah Khan ***















Dear Readers,

when on your journey you come by a dancing hall, what would be the first thing to come to your mind? You can see what the three of us did, arguably with different degrees of success, when that happened to us. The precious temple of Preah Khan is famous for its educational history, having served as the biggest Buddhist university of its time.
The unique round-columned two story building above is rumored to have been a library once. More certain are researchers about the swimming pool of the inhabitants. Would you go swimming in green, unmoving waters? I am doubtful.

Yours,

Mat
