Morning at the West terrace and docks of the East Baray

The East Baray was a water reservoir built early in the Khmer Empire after the relocation of the capital to modern day Angkor Thom.

Today Yasodharatataka, East Baray in Khmer, is a dried-out water basin. It is mostly taken over by the jungle but with some rice paddocks and vegetable and fruit farming.

Slightly smaller than the still existing and large man-made construction West Baray, East Baray was 2 km wide and 7 km long. With a depth of 3 meter, it contained 50 million cubic meters of water.
East Baray is due east of Victory gate and the Elephant terrace in front of the Royal Palace of Angkor Thom. The docks and terrace on the West side is the remains of the important entrance to the west, close to the core area of the Khmer Imperial Capital. Its importance can be traced by the complexity of the docs, and the lion guards and statue remain. It is placed well into the jungle, and not very often visited. Fresh excavations are being done on a hospital temple nearby.

This photo is taken at nearing the end of the peak of green season, when the sun getting stronger and the wet spell are fewer. The green season in visible in how green vegetation and moss are covering and highlighting the remains of buildings, stairs and docks. The area in between is more neutral.

For most visitors, photogs or not, some downpours are good when visiting an area filled with natural and cultural marvels like the Angkor Park:

Photo shows a forest like floor with remains of structures of former dockside buildings, stairs and docking area. The historic remains are covered by green moss and vegetation. The rest is ordinary earth and grass, and a few trees spread out. In the background there are jungle like forest. Through the green foliage and in open areas between the trees there is a lightly clouded sky with some spots of sun rays.

Greenlight the best time to visit Cambodia

Sometimes it is nice enjoying the rain cleaning up the air and colours in Angkor Thom. Sitting in a comfortable shelter with other visitors and staff is a sociable affair, too.

Green season in Cambodia starts in June/July and reaches its peak in September/October. Planning to visit during the summer in Europe, or when the Autumn is at its darkest and coldest in the northern hemisphere, those are the best time to enjoy Cambodia.

And to visit the architecture and art from the ancient Khmer empire.

The afternoon rainfalls are short, and they freshest the air and cools down the temperature. And they make everything grow healthy green. Including shrouding the ancient temples and imperial sites in green, softening the outline and enhancing the contrasts.

Making the photography conditions are excellent, the temperature is awesome, the crowds are small, and the cost of food, drinks and accommodation are as pleasant as ever.

For those who enjoys other senses as much, they can look forward to the fresh scent after a shower has cleaned the air, and the fragrance of green nature in it growing season. And the aroma of delicious food made from fresh vegetables and fruit. The sound of birds and insects wakening after a fresh spell is part of natural wonder. And the sound of different sort of monsoon is something to ponder.

Photo shows a landscape of trees and green turf getting cleaned by a shower of rain. In front there is a range of numbered stones from the renovation project in Angkor Thom. In the background there are some deep green covers of renovation project of the Bayon temple. It is a day in the green season, showing how this season is a god season to visit. The views, contrast smell and sounds get clearer during this season. adding some mystique in rainy fog and increasing red colours of the driving/walking tracks turning muddy by the rain.

Green season morning in Angkor Park

Prasat Top Khang Kaeut (Eastern Prasat Top) temple is a small Hindu temple with several images of the Hindu God Vishnu. The temple is mostly unvisited and very peaceful. The vegetation makes for some stunning photo opportunities during the green season.

The vegetation has taken over most of the surroundings. During green season it gets extraordinary for photos, with deep, green moss and fresh green all around the still very visible temple.

Religious tolerance in the Khmer Empire
Top Khang Kaeut was built during the reign of Jayavarman VII, the great Buddhist god king, and was initiated in 1295CE. It was dedicated in honour of Mangalartha, a son of a Hindu Brahmin priest/guru kept in high regard by the great king. That gives a glimpse into the religious tolerance and transformation of the Empire into Buddhism as the main religion.

This is the last significant Hindu Temple built in the Khmer Empire before the major change to Buddhism as state religion.

Pleasant green season
The Green season in Cambodia starts in June/July and reaches its peak in September/October. To visit during this time period are among the best time slots to enjoy modern Cambodia.

The afternoon rainfalls are short, and they freshen up the air and chills the temperature. And they make everything grow healthy green.

Photo shows the East Top Temple deep in the forest in the old city of Angkor Thom in rainy season. A small temple with a stone wall all covered in green moss makes for high contrast structures and colours. It is a small hindu temple with several images of the Hindu God Vishnu.  In front of the temple is the brown dirt track leading to the temple. In front there are several green moss covered stones from the other buildings and fence once places here.

"The small city of Hailey, Idaho, for instance, experienced a staggering single-year jump of 53 points, rising to a total score of 77 and technically outpacing the top-ranked large city on the list, thanks in large part to an effort to drop speed limits as low as 15 to 20 miles per hour on many of its streets.”

The goal was a healthy fish meal at Kenny's. 🚴‍♀️ But it started to drizzle. I saw that a li'l cafe with an unintentionally #bikeFriendly setup was open. I felt adventurous, so I ended up at this #cafe run by #nuns.

The nun tells me they have 2 meals available today: bakso and chicken rendang. I had to ask what they were. #Indonesian When confused or undecided, go for the chicken! 😜

The #food was alright. My problem was the flimsy disposable utensils.

There is a window at the far end where people place and collect their orders. There is one male diner at the left side of the small cafe, on the other side a bicycle is parked next to a table.Chicken rendang with rice and calamansi on the sideCoffee in a paper cup served with bread

I enjoyed a brilliant spin around Mexico City on a municipal rental bike. The deal? Just 123 MXN (around €5.70) for a full day, with rides up to 45 minutes included in the price. Pushed my luck slightly and rode for 45 minutes and 15 seconds, landing a minor overage fee of 22.41 MXN (about €1). Absolutely worth it for the freedom to explore the city.

Video: How to Build a City Around Bikes, Fast


Around the world cycling lanes are popping up and bike shops are selling out. As the coronavirus pandemic means people need to avoid subways and buses the bicycle is having a renaissance. And it could have much bigger repercussions for the health of our cities long into the future.
