Ta Keo

See here for more details on Ta Keo





Very Steep Stairs. This is the worst of all temples! Scary!


Oh my God! Look at this flight of stairs!


I am so proud of myself, able to conquer the stairs of Ta Keo. It is really scary, especially when you are looking down from the top! Climbing up is easy, coming down is challenging! If you are afraid of height, please DO NOT go up!

Joke of the Day
Well, the funny thing is I didnt fall in any of the temples. But I fell when I get back to hotel, on the stairs inside the hotel! What a joke! The fall was so terribly bad, I got "blue-black" on my left elbow and left side of my hip.

Oh my goodness! That slope is very much more than 45 degrees. And the steps are so narrow! How did you manage?! 佩服,佩服!

Ya, I think that gradient is at least 60 degrees! To add to the challenge, some part of stone stairs may be chipped off or rounded due to wear/tear. Better wear a good pair of shoes with good trip. Ladies, avoid high heels!
Oh yes, dont bring too many things with you, it affects your stability and also, you need to use your four limbs!
