Thank you, Mr. B. Your videos brought joy to me.

Love your adventurous spirit. So brave.

[@TheMrB]

I was once a severe addict so I do not think it’s so much bravery because when you have walked out of hell alone there is no fear nor can they ever be any danger greater than what you have come from.
Please do remember to have adventures of your own

Interesting place. I think they might be saying 'ruesii' which means hermit

Mr. B. Can I clearify the misunderstanding about the empire of Angkor. Before the Empire of Angkor was established there were different Varman dynasties established throughout mainland South East Asia. One in Cambodia, Southern Laos, Isan Thailand, and maybe as for south to the Malay peninsula. During th early stage of the Angkor empire 9th-10th century AD the varman rulers from what is now Cambodia established a small stronghold in Cambodia. It wasn't a full centralize empire yet until the 11th-14th when the Varman dynasty from the Mahidharapura bloodline came to rule Angkor. These Varman rulers from Korat plateau are not the same as the Varman kings from other regions. They have the knowledge and power of centralization. The Mahidharapura dynasty bloodline produce Angkor's greatest kings such as King Suryavarman I, King Suryavarman II, King Tribhuvanaditya, and King Jayavarman the 7th. After last Varman ruler name Jayavarman IX was killed supposedly by an unknown Cambodian figure we can clearly see the decline of Angkor and the rise of Ayutthaya power in the early 14th century AD. The early rulers of Ayutthaya could have been descendants of the Mahidharapura dynasty that intermarried with the local Mon Dvaravati kingdoms from that area they once conquered.

The truth is I would not feel comfortable in entering into the world of dates concerning the history, as I am no expert by any means. I am only an enthusiast who has fallen in love with the Temples. What you have said certainly does scan out to me, but I will leave it to mine is way wiser than mine to debate a timeline of the ancient empire.
My very best wishes to you, I hope life is kind

@@TheMrB Yes I know you are just a temple fanatic but just want to share my historical knowledge on here base on facts and evidence. Again thank you for what you have done.

Hello, I have a question about the stones used to construct these temples. Do you happen to know what kind of stone they are made of, where it was quarried from, and/or the techniques they used to do so? It strikes me as unusual (and impressive) that they use such large blocks of stone to build with, compared to something like a European cathedral, which generally use smaller sized blocks.

Yes ! I’ve know this Khmer historian he has the Khnowlegde and evidences how Ancient Angkor Temple were build off and made of and the location it’s within Cambodia soil we can sees all the prints in square pieces that has been mold and removed from that location .
