The Victory Gate

One of the important relics of the royal city, the brilliance of the dynasty can be seen from it.

There is no need to hire a car to get there as the walk or other way from Angkor Wat to the Paju Temple is better experience. It is a magical place not only because of the sculptures on the bridge but also the odd-shaped doors, the river and the surrounding trees are equally worth the stop to see. Nianzhu Temple also surprised me, sometimes the surroundings of the temple are more touching than the temple itself. As usual, I attach photos to my review and I hope you will come to see this beautiful place.

As you know, the most famous in the city of Tong is the Khmer smile, in fact, we will enter the city of Tong, can see the Khmer smile. Victory door smile is particularly calm, and very quiet. From the front and the left, you can see the smile. A small door seems to pass only through a car. But standing here with my eyes closed, I could feel the scene of the armies returning from triumph and walking through the gates thousands of years ago when the Angkor dynasty was in full strength.

Many people confuse the Victory Gate in Angkor Wat with the South Gate of Tongwangcheng. In fact, they are the two gates in Tongwang City, and the Victory Gate is the east gate leading to Tongwang City. Although he is not as spectacular as the South Gate, his shape and scale are very similar to ours. There is also a Khmer smile on the door. There are more gods on both sides that are stirring the sea of milk. Compared with the crowded crowd at the South Gate, I prefer the tranquility on the east gate, maybe standing in a daze here, you can see more of what you want.

Enter the gate of victory and enter the mysterious and magnificent Angkor City, the whole gate is not particularly tall, look up to see the smile directly above, in fact, he can also go up to look, there will be a smiling Buddha statue.
