      Do not worrie, GOD IS ALWAYS ON TIME. And CHRIST shall return again .
      The only reason He haven't come yet, is because you are still unsaved,
      GOD calls you home also:
      2 Peter 3:9chapter context similar meaning copy save The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. John 3:15chapter context similar meaning copy save That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
      Every time you worried and complain that GOD haven´t returned yet, ask these question from yourself; HAVEN'T I GOTTEN SAVED YET?
      DID I CAME TO REPENTANCE?
      Acts 17:30chapter context similar meaning copy save And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
      The time is ticking, place your hand on your chest, on that side where your heart is, can you feel it, the pumping inside your chest? Can you hear you heart beating? - your heart, dear soul is the clock of your lifetime.

    When people are so shocked that humans couldn't design any of these monuments tall structures and claim only Aliens could've done that, they're basically forgetting that these were humans too. Look at the stuff we build today. They had the exact same brain capacity and sophistication as we have today. We're the same species. If we placed a bunch of humans of different professions (architects, doctors&herbalists, teachers, horticulturist, merchants, farmers etc.) in an area and without any modern technology and then told them to utilise everything in their environment to survive and to build magnificent structures. They definitely could! Why is it suddenly different when a few thousand years and taken away?
    Humans naturally have an ability to coordinate, adapt and problem solve to work together. It's what makes us unique and has been the case for 1000s of years.

That's their story and I am sticking with it. If you are interested in other legendary lost cities, I have now written two books: "Farini's Lost City of the Kalahari - Fraud or Fact?" as well as "Finding Farini's Lost City of the Kalahari." Using modern tools and research methodologies I thoroughly investigate Farini's journey and propose answers to questions about the possible location of these ruins and why they have not yet been found.

The walls of the temple have reliefs that tell the story of the creation of the world (with the churning of the ocean of milk) as well as many Hindu stories and myths mostly ingrained in ancient Hindu religion, involving Garuda, apsaras, and shiva just to name drop some history ….truly magnificent ancient history and worth the visit for any history buffs out there

      @@PJCC_BAISH ma’am as a scholar in Indian history, and from my own research that’s quite the disturbing comment. Given it’s a fact the Chola empire of Tamil Nadu (and you can read about this if you care. Ofc I assume you don’t given your evident ignorance) influenced the spread of Hinduism from Bhutan to Laos (all of Southeast Asia), and had even Indonesia, Maldives and potentially further south. The chola empire is considered an empire of influence (though I would hasten to disagree with this Eurocentric assessment as evidence of colonization is clear). The cholas infused elements of Dravidian script into many of these nations, and if you ever note the length of the names of countries like Thailand of Myanmar or Cambodia, it has a characteristic length to it very much influenced by ancient Chola tradition. Before you mock me or question me know that I’m an expert in this field, that I know my stuff, and that to this day, Indians are HEAVILY involved in the restoration work of Angkor Wat, key to the Sanskrit interpretation and the Hindu placement of much of what is seen in Cambodia. That’s what this documentary doesn’t cover. Or the fact Indian archeologists risked their lives even during the Khmer Rouge (where Pol Pot wanted to murder all Hindus) to continue restoring the temple complex. Ignorance, and being wrong is simply not appreciated by someone who has spent one’s whole life studying these things.

    The Royal palace at Nokor Thom is the central point of the empire. The kingdom had other smaller palaces across the empire with different rulers. It’s weird that the only records available is by a Chinese when the Khmer empire was in close contact with the Siam, Java and Malay and Sri Lanka too, champa too but they no longer exist to have much records left. The Khmer cities were plundered and looted and many things were taken to other kingdoms during wartime so maybe check them out.
