Images from Asia: Phnom Krom

This temple sat on a hill far away from the rest of the temples of Angkor. When I arrived I was the only person there, but after twenty minutes a large group of Cambodian tourists showed up. None of them spoke any English, but they apparently found it interesting to see a foreigner and followed me everywhere I went. At one point I was embarrassed and snuck over to a cliff to sit down. Everyone followed, arraying themselves around me in a circle. There was much laughing, they shared my water and took a look at my guide book, and then made their way back down the hill, leaving me utterly baffled as to what had just happened.
