Ta Prohm, a temple-monastery. Build under direction of Jayavarman VII in honor of his mother. Late 12th & 13th centuries. (0678)It has been left as it was found in the 19th century, so great trees both hold up buildings and, when they die, allow the building to collapse, so they symbolize both protection and destruction.This picture shows the silk-cotton tree roots over the double pillared West galery of the second enclosure.
