  • A hole in the ground at an archaeological site, but not an excavation pit. During the Vietnam-American war, US forces bombed the area, leading to the destruction of a number of temple ruins of the My Son Sanctuary in central Vietnam. The site is now recognised as a World Heritage Site, but craters like these can still be seen on the grounds. #vietnam #quangnam #mysonsanctuary #vietnamwar #bomb #crater #cham #unescoworldheritage #southeastasianarchaeology . . . . . #champa #ancienttemple #southeastasia #archaeology #archeology #culturalheritage #travelgram #globetrotter #explorer #exploringtheglobe #vietnamtravel #travelvietnam #MỹSơn #centralvietnam #uxo #warishell #neveragain
  • Wat Sao Thong Thong, located in Koh Kret, a small artificial island along the Chao Phraya River north of Bangkok. The Phra Thutangka Chedi in the foreground was built in the Ayutthaya period. Koh Kret is a great day trip from Bangkok, home to a Mon community and known for its ceramics. #bangkok #thailand #kohkret #เกาะเกร็ด #watsaothongthong #chedi #stupa #ayutthaya #southeastasianarchaeology . . . . . ##chaophraya #แม่น้ำเจ้าพระยา #travelthailand #amazingthailand #visitthailand #architecture #temple #historicalsite #daytrip #architecturelovers #ancientarchitecture #buddhism #buddhisttemple #southeastasia #culturalheritage #thailandinstagram #tourismthailand #thailandinsider #travelgram #travelphotography #globetrotter
  • The view of the National Museum of the Philippines complex from Intramuros - the Museum of Fine Arts is the main building pictured (formerly the legislative building), and behind it are two more museums, the Museum of the Filipino Peoples (smaller building on the right) and the Museum of Anthropology (which houses the archaeology collections). #philippines #manila #nationalmuseumofthephilippines #nationalmuseum #museumoffinearts #southeastasianarchaeology . . . . . #pambansangmuseongpilipinas #southeastasia #historicalplace #nationaltreasure #historicalsite #artefact #artifact #architecture #architecturelovers #architecturephotography #monument #Buildinglover #museum #itsmorefuninthephilippines #nationalmuseumph #travelgram #view #travelphotography #globetrotter #travelersnotebook #travelchannel #culturetrip
  • Visitors to Phnom Penh and followers of this site should always make a trip to the National Museum of Cambodia a must when visiting Phnom Penh. The museum holds the country's most important archaeological pieces. #cambodia #phnompenh #nationalmuseum #architecture #southeastasianarchaeology . . . . . #southeastasia #culturalheritage #archaeology #archeology #visitphnomepenh #ancienthistory #nationaltreasure #historicalsite #artefact #artifact #architecture #architecturelovers #museum #travelawesome #travelersnotebook #travelchannel #exploreasia #visitcambodia
  • I visited the Musee Guimet in 2015 - it must be renovated by now. The giant face towers at the back are not actual stones from Angkor, but they were plaster casts commissioned in 1870 by Louis Delaporte who led the French Mekong expedition in 1866-1868. #france #paris #cambodia #angkor #museum #guimet #southeastasianarchaeology #khmerart . . . . . #plastercast #museeguimet #louisdelaporte #bayon #sculpture #antiquities #colonial #looted #archeologicalsite #artifact #ruins #angkorwat #angkorthom #bayon #taprohm #angkortemples #southeastasia #archaeology #archeology #culturalheritage #hindu #buddhist
  • Detail of some of the mosaic art adorning Wat Xieng Thong, depicting scenes of Laotian life and religious stories. The temple was built in the 16th century, and one used for royal ceremonies in the court of Luang Prabang. #laos #luangprabang #watxiengthong #mosaic #boat #southeastasianarchaeology . . . . . #buddhism #buddhist #lao #royaltemple #ancienttemple #worldheritage #historicalplace #unescoworldheritage #worldheritagesite #buddhisttemple #southeastasia #archaeology #archeology #culturalheritage #travelawesome #exploringtheglobe #TLPicks #travelersnotebook #exploreasia #asianwanderlust #ວັດຊຽງທອງ #ຫລວງພະບາງ
