geovalin Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Architects, archaeologists, and workers who participated in the renovation of the Takav gate of Angkor Thom expressed their happiness after seeing this ancient gate, which showed its unique beauty and longevity. Han Mach, 66, a resident of North Sras Srang village, who has been involved in the renovation of many temples in the Angkor area with the APSARA National Authority for more than 20 years, said that initially the Takav gate was damaged in many parts, such as stones falling apart from the top of the Brahma faces, three-headed elephant statues, the statues of Deva and Asura on the causeway. She said happily that when the restoration project was completed, the Takav gate was so beautiful that it was almost unbelievable. “This work was very valuable because she has contributed to preserving our ancient Khmer temples.” Oeung Thoeun, 39, a resident of O’Torteung Village, and a worker who helped repair the Takav gate, said that after the restoration over the last three years, the Takav gate has stood strongly again. read more https://www.khmertimeskh.com/501252928/restoration-team-expresses-happiness-after-seeing-takav-gate-of-angkor-thom-stand-strong-again/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
