Hello, and welcome back to my blog! This is part...part...ummmmm, I honestly don't remember what part we're on. 😂 I've written so many election day posts I lost track of how many parts we're in! Hopefully, I remember it and can add the title by the end of this post. Anyway, I am back! Our topic for today is actually, different than what I write about. Politics is pretty much, most of what I write these days... Anyway, the topic is about facts and history. It sounds weird at the moment, but, when we get into it, it won't. Today, I'm writing from my heart, and what else do I like to explore and have an interest in than facts and history?
I've mentioned this in, about 2-3 posts, but I've never clarified WHAT I like about history. ( To be more specific, ANCIENT history) History is fascinating to me because it is our past, and shows/is what life was like without all these new gadgets in our modern-day world. It's fascinating to learn about how civilizations thrived in a world with limited supplies and with tools more basic than what we use in our everyday lives. It's amazing how they created the most amazing things- Pyramids of Giza, ancient temples, ancient vaults, beautiful sculptures- by hand and without complex machines and equipment. I want to share some - 3 - of my most favorite ancient sites with you, to share how creative and innovative they were.
#1, Angkor Wat
I actually, first learned about Angkor Wat from Kumon. One of the passages was a document on an explorer who discovered this temple, and out of curiosity, I googled it and, found out, that it is a very real place, and is very beautiful. Angkor Wat is a temple complex, located in northern Cambodia, in the Khmer region.
