Further to my previous post, this is another beautiful temple in Phnom Penh, Cambodia that my sister visited. Its name is Wat Phnom. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wat_Phnom)

This temple is one of the oldest temples in Phnom Penh. It’s situated on a small hill, so it looks outstanding from a far distance.

The stairs are unique and awesome with lovely color. The giant lions and Nagas at both sides look powerful and elegant.
