Cambodia, The Temples of Angkor
The east entry of Angkor Wat
|
In April 2007 we have been in Cambodia to see the famous temples of Angkor.
As i assumed the temples are a great destination for taking 3D stereo photos.
|
|
The Angkor 3D Stereo Gallery is available via the map below.
The visited sites are marked in red colour, you can click on these areas to open a gallery for this site.
In each gallery you can switch between 3D-Stereo-Anaglyph
or normal mono view of the pictures.
Please be patient with the galleries, it takes some time to load the pictures as they are located behind a DSL line on my home server.
Our days in Cambodia:
Apr. 18, 2007 We arrive at Siem Reap Airport, the handling of our application for visa takes only a few minutes and cost $20 p.person.
|
|
Our travel agency ordered a driver to bring us to our hotel, Pavillon Indochine.
He offeres us his services to be our driver around the temples the next days.
We agree, this was a very good decision as we see the days to come.
Apr. 19, 2007 We start the first day exploring the temples at 08:30 hrs.
First we buy a 7 day ticket for 60$ per person at the main entrance of the angkor historical park.

Our taxi driver Min Dara is a well and fluently english speaking, cultivated, kindly fellow.
Very reliable, he is always some minutes before the agreed time.
He knows a lot about his country and the life of people in the Siem Reap area.
Apr. 20, 2007 Today we start earlier at 07:00 hrs, because the day before we wasted time to make good photos in the nice morning light.
