I myself am amazed of the details the put in their work. Tourism sure did well to help the locals here. UNESCO did a good thing here <strong>Og</strong>. They made the people here realize that Tourism would help their livelihood so they must preserve them as well. Still amazes me how they create those masterpieces <strong>Bing</strong> :D Hi Photo Cache! I myself am amazed of the details the put in their work. Tourism sure did well to help the locals here.

The temples are worth preserving, I'm glad with added tourism in the country, I'm sure they would make the necessary steps in seeing that the temples remain in tip top shape.
