2013, Day 102 - Facing all directions

Another view of Angkor Thom.  From here you can see the faces of the Buddha on each of the towers facing north, south, east, and west.  Angkor Thom is the temple where the faces of the Buddha are smiling with benevolent indulgence.  I can still remember the feeling I had while exploring that temple of amazement and serenity.  Maybe it is because all the faces were smiling but I think it was something more than that, it was not simple awe, I truly felt welcome at Angkor Thom.
