http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/1224

Situated on the edge of a plateau that dominates the plain of Cambodia, the buildings that make up the sanctuary are dedicated to Shiva. The temple dates back to the first half of the 11th century AD. Nevertheless, its complex history can be traced to the 9th century, when the hermitage was founded. This site is particularly well-preserved, mainly due to its remote location near the border with Thailand. The site is exceptional for three reasons: its natural situation on a promontory, with sheer cliffs overlooking a vast plain and mountain range; the quality of its architecture adapted to the natural environment and religious function of the temple; and, finally, the exceptional quality of the carved stone ornamentation of the temple.

  • @2515masatothai2529 - If you don't care why bother to tell? Thai more civilize like Thai princess showing her boobs naked on video or Thai girls dancing naked at Thai temples in front of the monks or Thai students wearing the Nazi uniform making the Jews very angry around the world. Thai more civilize retard !!!!!

  • All I can see in Cambodia comments are historical story but I'm Thai only think about future so this is why Thai is more civilize than Cambodia. Only think about the past can't help you develop your thought. I don't care who is higher than us in the past but now we are.

  • Prasat Preah Vihear has always been a Cambodian temple! The Thais have no right to claim it. I love both countries Cambodia and Thailand, but the Thais should learn to accept the fact that this temple is Khmer!

    Eternal love for Cambodia! My heart will always be in the Land of Angkor Wat!

  • Thai shit baboons lost their mother in Nanchao and they came here to claim their mother in this Khmer house LOL

    Thai go claiming your mother in Nanchao now Yunnan in China. Hahahaha never seen anyone so dumb like these Thai shit baboons losing mother and claim Khmer mother as Thai mother Hahahaha FUN FUN FUN !!!!

  • thai cambodia burmese and lao are brothers and sisters . we have the same ancestors so please let us live in peace friendship and harmony.that place does not belong to thailand or cambodian.it belongs to both of them.please stop fighting against each other .because if thai and cambodia people kill each other it is the same as kill a member of your own family.love each other help each other and understand each other, please.actually the conflict started because of the european imperialism

  • It's not about who this piece of history belongs, it;s about respecting it as a part of the world...
