Have questions or resources regarding Khmer Culture? This forum is all about the Kingdom of Cambodia's culture. Khmer language, Cambodian weddings, French influence, Cambodian architecture, Cambodian politics, Khmer customs, etc? This is the place. Living in Cambodia can cause you to experience a whole new level of culture shock, so feel free to talk about all things related to the Khmer people, and their traditions. And if you want something in Khmer script translated into English, you will probably find what you need.

An archaeological team has announced that they discovered an ancient Ta Tonh temple hidden deep in the forest.

In an amazing find, Mr. Peov Ing, an archaeologist from the Ministry of Civilization and Art in Oudor Meanchey province, discovered the lost ancient Ta Tonh temple in the forest near Tumnup Thmey village, Tropeang Brasat District, Oudor Meanchey province. The whole temple was covered by vines and hidden in the undergrowth. Much of the temple is damaged and it is in need of restoration.

‘An amazing find’

A penny pays a pound that there were a least a dozen local farmers knew it was there but never thought to tell anyone.

They should clear the forest and make a new road there, so it'll be more accessible for tourists
