A Kiwi girl (Melissa) and the American fellow (Erik) and I got a guide and TukTuk driver for the day to go and have a look.
These are a little different style of TukTuk...
Up at 4:45am to get a sunrise and a full day in...
They are temples built as far back as about 800AC with wall carvings.... 
Telling stories of the battles of the kingdom...
Also the way people lived...
Some of these temples are where Hollywood came and did tomb raider footage.
Amazing stories... very interesting... the first real touristy thing I have done, but totally enjoyable.
I took a lot of photos of this area.. I have to go through them and sort some out.
This is a chamber and as you pass through you put your back to the wall and beat your chest... the whole room resonates at a nice vibration and echos through you and the room.. very nice....
While we were driving around on the TukTuk we were pulled over by the police... they were checking licenses and registration of the vehicles.... I thought all was OK until he came over to me and said "Excise me sir I have to check the plate!!"I said.. "Do you want me to get out of the vehicle?"
He said "no no it is OK"
I didn't realize he was asking for a bribe
The Guide gave him some cash and we were right to continue.
We stopped for lunch and a heap of little children came to try and sell us bangles, flutes, t-shirts, books and a heap of other stuff.

They say "Where are you from"and after you tell them they say "If I tell you the population, your PM, all the states and territories and how many governors you have had, will you buy this from me for $5?"
They were very clever kids... we tested them on a lot of countries and they knew 95% of the countries we asked them... very clever.
