Angkor Wat, reflection of an ancient temple city

The Angkor Wat, reflection of an ancient temple city geocache (GC891Y2) is a virtual cache published in Cambodia at the end of 2019 under the “Virtual Rewards 2.0” programme. That cache type suits this twelfth-century religious complex particularly well: it sidesteps the usual maintenance problems and makes it possible to play without compromising the integrity of the site — at a time when every older virtual in the country had been archived.

Angkor is unquestionably one of the most breathtaking architectural wonders in the world. It is not simply “beautiful”, it is a majestic, mystical experience. On the ground, the visit turns into a genuine geocaching investigation, combining architectural exploration with the satisfaction of logging a rare, still-active cache in the region.
