When I last visited Cambodia, in 1995, the country was devastated from years of unspeakably brutal civil war and armed regional conflicts. The magnificent architectural ruins at Angkor Wat, a UN World Heritage site, had only recently reopened to the public. These ancient temples ensnared by the jungle’s tendrils, often referred to as the Eighth Wonder of the World, were undergoing a new wave of protection and restoration.
