The long steps extend up to Prasat Preah Vihear, over 500 meters high. The ancient Hindu temple stands at the cliff edge and each stone carving there records the history of the ancient Khmer kings.
Unfortunately, now people can only appreciate the temple’s beauty through photos. Due to the continuous exchange of fire between the Thai and Cambodian armies, this world-class landscape has become a danger zone.
The thunder of guns at Thai-Cambodian border forces us to once again feel the heavy burden of national development in Asia.
When we look through the boundaries of Asia, certain place names, locations, or sea regions will suddenly see familiarity – not from geography books, but from news of border conflicts.
