Angkor Wat is a large Hindu temple located in Cambodia that was built in the early 12th century by the Khmer civilization to honor their king Suryavarman II. It was originally dedicated to the Hindu god Vishnu but is now a Buddhist temple. The walls of Angkor Wat contain extensive bas reliefs depicting stories from Hindu mythology including the Churning of the Ocean of Milk and battles from the Ramayana including Rama vs. Ravana and the Monkey King.
