Questions about this page

How many archaeological & historic sites are there in Cambodia?

49 on this map, out of 14,002 worldwide. That is what Wikidata records for Cambodia with coordinates, a photograph and a Wikipedia article — the real number on the ground is larger, and for some countries much larger.

What is the best known of the archaeological & historic sites in Cambodia?

Angkor Wat, 12th century. Hindu-Buddhist temple complex in Cambodia.

Which is the oldest?

Bakong, dated to 881. 7 of these 49 carry a founding date, 4 of them from before the year 1000.

Where does this information come from?

Every place is drawn from Wikidata (CC0), with photographs from Wikimedia Commons and a link to its English Wikipedia article. Selection is deterministic: a place is here because Wikidata files it under one of the classes this atlas carries and it has coordinates, a photo and an article. Nothing is written or chosen by an AI, and the ranking is simply how many Wikipedia language editions cover a place.
