Luckily I won't have to disappoint - but the photo's of the site(s) are old and you've been able to visit them for years. They aren't even some of the most stunning views. The new discovery will no doubt be interesting and possibly spectacular - but it's all underground!

Possibly, if I have figures out how to add things here, you may be able to see some I made earlier...

Oh wow Elo.

Really not. The site(s) are huge - photo's don't do any justice at all Those are two of the 300+ photo's that I took in one day. I was in Cambodia for 21 days! It has great majesty but there is a darker side to it too - I won't post my photo's of the Killing Fields Museum, but it is as tragic as a visit to a concentration camp.
