One of the "lesser" temples of Angkor, but equally spectacular, and added advantage is the tour buses and crowds mostly avoid it. Definitely worth the detour.

The next stop from Angkor is Bandai Katti, whose architecture is Bayan style, which is dilapidated due to the wrong structure and poor quality of the sandstone used, and is being renovated.

Pandrakati is a relatively small temple, architectural style and reliefs are very similar to Angkor Wat, but not so majestic, there are four-faced Buddha statues at the door, the smile of Khmer is mysterious.

Banteay Kdei (Banteay Kdei) was built between the middle of the 12th century and the beginning of the 13th century during the reign of Royal Bama VII. Its architectural style is Barong style, which is similar to Tabulang temple and Saint Sword temple, but with small scale and complexity. The corridor collapsed around it, like an empty shelf with simple structure. In fact, let me specifically describe, I can not say what is special, maybe it is simple love, as I wrote at the beginning of the article "inexplicable, I like you, deeply in love with you, no reason, no reason. Somehow I like you and love you deeply, from the day I saw you. " We rested for a long time in front of the stones beside Bandekati Monastery, and I gazed at the walls, the empty frames, for a long time. The best point for Portrait Photography - "standing in an empty frame, through the same empty window, this view angle is good.

On the edge of the Royal Bathroom (SrahRrong), once a monk's residence, the structure is somewhat like the Barong Temple and the interior is like a labyrinth; the reliefs and buildings here are very distinctive, and there is no need to go up and down like the Barong Temple, and there are not many visitors, so they can enjoy it leisurely. Every pillar of the dancing platform has a dancing Apsara, which is beautiful from outside to inside. The relief goddess on the wall is also graceful and lifelike.

Bandaikati Temple is very close to the Royal Bath Pool. Bandaikati was founded by Vang Ye Bama VII, a Buddhist temple about 800 years ago. This temple is typical of the Barong style, which is very popular in Angkor. This is a good place for taking photos and portraying reality because it is rather biased and the tour group is not coming at all, so there are few tourists here.

There are very few visitors in the morning, and we only meet three or five visitors at the best time in the morning. In the empty and quiet temple, listen to the song of the ostrich and shuttle through the intricate corridors. There are lots of empty window frames like natural photo frames that can take many interesting photos of the shallow carved Apsala on the stone pillars, and I came to dance with it
