What if Angkor Wat was only a tiny part of something much bigger?
For centuries, the jungle hid one of the greatest archaeological secrets in history. Using advanced LiDAR technology, researchers uncovered an enormous lost city surrounding Angkor Wat—complete with vast road networks, hidden temples, hundreds of mysterious earthen mounds, and one of the most impressive hydraulic systems ever built.
Discover the incredible engineering behind the West Baray, the largest hand-cut reservoir on Earth, stretching nearly 8 kilometers long and 2 kilometers wide. The amount of earth excavated to build it has been compared to 53 Great Pyramids of Giza.
Join us as we explore the forgotten megacity of the Khmer Empire and reveal how modern technology changed everything we thought we knew about Angkor.
