The taxi driver came to my hotel very early in the morning. It was still dark. And I headed for this most famous temple in this ruin. Even after I entered into the site, it was too dark to see where the temple was. I stood still and waited. In a matter of time, the sun came from the behind of the temple. The temple was silhouetted. Finally, I could know where the temple.

It was one of the largest Hindu temple complexes in the world and listed on UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Now it is a symbol of the country and depicted on the national flag.
