1. The Terrace of the Leper King is one of the most prominent structures within the Angkor Wat temple complex in Cambodia. The terrace is named after a statue of a leper king that was found on the site, although the statue was later determined to be of the Hindu god Yama, the god of death. The terrace is adorned with intricate carvings of mythical creatures, elephants, and nagas (serpents). The carvings are highly detailed and display masterful artistic skill. The terrace is believed to have been constructed in the late 12th or early 13th century.
