Siem Reap - Banteay Srei - 2006

Banteay Srei means “Citadel of the Women”, and it is speculated that women built it as the carvings are “too fine” for man’s hands to create.  It is very old, from the 10th century or earlier; dedicated to Siva.  The stone carving is considered some of the world’s finest.
