Estimated to have taken around 30 years to construct, this complex was originally a Hindu temple dedicated to the god Vishnu. It transitioned to a Buddhist temple towards the end of the 12th century and is believed to be the world’s largest religious building. From afar, Angkor Wat appears to be one enormous mass of stone. Once inside, however, visitors will find a series of elevated towers, porches and, courtyards on different levels, linked by a series of stairways. We’ve recreated one of Angkor Wat’s lush courtyards, and we think it looks like the perfect place for some mindful walking.
