Tabu Cage Temple "Tomb Raider" location
1186, Khmer King Jayavarman built a classical Bashu style Tabu Cage Temple in the southeast of the Victory Gate in Angkor City to sacrifice his mother. The Tabu Cage Temple was built entirely in accordance with the temple with dual functions of temples and monasteries, and was also equipped with stilts, priests and dancers.
After seven hundred years of change, the ancient city that had already decayed was discovered by the French, but the ancient temple was not in the past, even the century-old tree had to compete with it. The ancient stone walls and corridors had already been worn by the roots. Throughout, the ancient temple had to linger in the roots of the big trees and insisted on not being crushed. The winding of the roots and the persistence of the ancient temple became a stark contrast, and it also brought shock to the world. The photos of the shocking people in the Hollywood movie Tomb Raider are shot here, which is one of the reasons why many fans come to feel mysterious.
Today's Tabu Cage Temple is still under the roots of the tree, and it is bound to be a fan of the century. Because the roots and the temple are closely combined, people can't protect the cultural relics, and they can't think of it. The method of wilting old trees and not damaging ancient temples can only see the deeper combination of the two...
Ta Prohm is a "must see" for all visitors to Angkor. However pretty much every tourist - foreign or local who comes to the archeological park comes here, and as it is not so big, it can get insanely busy - sometimes lines of 20 people waiting to have their photos taken. Come either in the first half hour after it opens (7:30~8am) or the final half hour before it closes (5~5:30pm), and it is significantly quieter.
Ta Prohm the iconic location from the Angelina Jolie movie Tomb Rider. the giant trees covering the historic temple is an amazing thing to view and experience the rich Cambodian heritage.
King Gaya Walman VII ruled Zhenra from 1181 to 1201, about fifty years old when he took office, and in 1186, in memory of his mother, he ordered the construction of the Taprun Temple. It was a temple with high priests, priests, dancers, and a temple and a monastery.
Tapuren Temple, located southeast of the Shengli Gate of Tongwang City, Angkor Wat, was built by the ancient Khmer king to sacrifice his mother, also known as the "mother temple". For more than a thousand years, the buildings of the Taprun Temple have gradually been entangled in the jungle by the huge roots or branches, torn apart, opened... forming a wonderful blend of you and me and you.
There are many god trees in Tablong Temple in Cambodia. I heard from the tour guide that this is because the climate in Southeast Asia is relatively humid. The giant trees grow in disjointed intersecting between the gaps in the temple. Birds eat the fruit of the tree and distribute the seeds throughout the temple. The seeds germinate in water, and the roots spread in the stone seams of the building to the four sides. Tightly wrapped around the ancient temple, growing among the stones, forming the wonder of the ancient temple tree, and adding a lot of mystery to this magical place.
Ta Phrom or more known to others as Tomb Raider's movie site, never fails to amaze first timers or returnees. The trees growing on the ruins give it a different feel.compared to the other temples.
