Banteay Srei and Beautiful Carving Details
The close up shot for detail of sandstone carving and Apsara statue of ancient Banteay Srei temple.
Banteay Srei or Banteay Srey is a 10th-century Cambodian temple dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva. Located in the area of Angkor in Cambodia.
Banteay Srei is built largely of red sandstone, a medium that lends itself to the elaborate decorative wall carvings which are still observable today. The buildings themselves are miniature in scale, unusually so when measured by the standards of Angkorian construction.
It is widely praised as a precious gem, or the jewel of Khmer art
