Cambodia - Angkor - Young Buddhist Monk at East Mebon

Young Buddhist monk Ronrom (20), sits in a doorway at East Mebon where he and his colleagues and venerable teachers have come for the day. Based at the nearby Pradaet Pagoda, his learning of Buddhism will last for ten years. Built in 953 for King Rajendravarman's parents, the original temple was surrounded by water so approached by boat. The sandstone towers at the summit are in the Pre Rup style.
