View from causeway into Angkor Wat with tiers rising to five central towers
A view from the main causeway over the moat toward the west face of Angkor Wat shows how the monument's tiers rise upward to the five central towers. Four of the towers are set in a perfect square around the center one that symbolizes Mount Meru, home of the Hindu gods.
