Khmer smile, Banteay Srei, Siem Reap, Cambodia.

I have been traveling to Cambodia for a long time, and the smiles of the giant Four-faced Buddha statues in the Baron Temple are unforgettable. It was raining that day, and we were mixed in with tourists wearing colorful raincoats, visiting the Baron Temple. Although the group of Buddha statues has been eroded by time, most of them are no longer sharp, but the outlines are still there, and the smile is always watching you in every corner. Upon closer observation, the kind and friendly eyes, slightly upturned thick lips, flat nose, wide forehead, long earlobes, and peaceful expression stand silently. Tourists all look up, as if responding to that mysterious smile. Is he a king or a subject? Is that expression a blessing or pity? Later, the sun shone through the clouds, and the beam was still strong. Tourists crowded and walked through the group of Buddha statues, like a modern person walking through a time tunnel in a painting. Barnge Temple has a total of 54 Four-Faced Buddhas, which means there are 216 smiling faces. The smiling faces in the four directions represent the four virtues of the Buddha: compassion, mercy, generosity, and justice. The temple also has reliefs, which are said to be over 1,000 meters long and depict more than 10,000 characters, portraying the history of the Angkor dynasty and the daily life of the Khmer people. However, many parts are now blurred. Cambodia is a country with abundant tourism resources and low travel costs. Siem Reap has many places worth visiting, such as Angkor Wat, the Royal Palace, and Ta Prohm. Renting a TUTU car and buying a three-day pass can make your visit easy and enjoyable.
