Introducing Angkor Wat!

Asiana Airlines is proud to announce, landmark non-stop service between Incheon International Airport and Siem Reap, Cambodia- the gateway to Angkor Wat, effective April 1, 2005. Previously accessible only by land or domestic air from Phnom Penh, Asiana can now fly you to this ancient wonder non-stop from Seoul.

Angkor Wat is believed to be the oldest and largest religious structure in the world. Along with the Great Wall of China, this temple is considered to be one of the top 5 engineering wonders of the world.

Built by the ancient Khmer dynasty over 1,000 years ago, the massive stone complex is about 1,500 meters x 1,300 meters and surrounded by a moat that is almost 200 meters wide. What at first glance appears to be a colossal mass of stone all on one level is in reality a series of elevated towers, covered galleries, chambers, porches and courtyards all on different levels and linked by stairways. Angkor Wat was abandoned in 1431 after a devastating war with Thailand. For the next 400 years, the jungle enveloped the temple, hiding it from sight until re-discovered in 1860 by French missionaries.

Today, Angkor Wat has been restored to much of its old glory and is located just a few miles
from the city of Siem Reap, Asiana's gateway to Cambodia!

We invite you to discover one of the Wonders of the World. On Asiana
