This little girl was waiting for her mother to finish work and was much more interested in the orange slices than the crumbling history around her.

Maybe because she grew up with it so she doesn’t know anything else. Unlike us who are surrounded by not ruined high-rises. She’ll our reaction when surrounded by tall buildings. I must admit I was in total awe standing in the middle of Angkor. It is an awesome place. I was glad that I didn’t grow up there otherwise the awesomeness would been lost by a seemingly mundane sceneries for a local.
Hi Chrys-
Yea that was sort of what I was driving at here- especially at such a young age we just naturally tend to accept our surroundings as we see them and only realize what we have later on. I spend a lot of time imagining this while traveling actually- what it would be like to live all your life in a city like Tokyo assuming the rest of the world is a giant megalopolis, or a random spot in the Argentine countryside, or anywhere else really. 🙂
Cheers!
Definitely – the history. Took me back to my very own history class in standard 10.
I actually forgot the king’s name and had to google it – King Suryavarman the second.
