How LIDAR Scans Reveal Angkor's Hidden City

[@radataentry9866]

In the Angkorian era, our ancestors abandoned the temples of Angkor Wat without fighting due to the floods and to escape the armies of the Portuguese Empire. He moved to present-day Phnom Penh, leaving only a small army to protect the heavily forested temple of Angkor Wat, leaving a legacy for future generations of Cambodians to know about their great past.

@@davidchim9246 The comment is talking about the abandonment of Angkor, which happened because of Thais. Read the comment first please. Talking about Portuguese is completely random

LIDAR is amazing technology. It is surprising to see the ignorance manifested by some of the comments below. I wonder if they heard of RADAR or ultrasound or of cars that are driven via ultrasound feedback to the auto's computer.

if the comments section does NOT have ignorance, thats when we need to start worrying because it could mean something is too good to be true and needs to be investigated.

Breathtaking!!!!!!!!

[@anandthandav3641]

Older than 900 yrs

[@jvaikido1]

It has to be much older than what historians are telling you. Building material Like rock was far away from the building site. Needed a very large labor force to transport all the rock from far away. It must take them Many centuries not 40 Years to build such a huge temple. And must be much older than what the authorities are saying.

[@कश्परैना]

Actually there are species carved on it like four task elephant n The King was riding on it...The four tusk elephant itself hold the history of 1 million year old shows how old the temple is🙏🙏🙏
