Hello, discussing from French Wikipedia:

Well, an interesting, clear and efficient article! Should you are interesting, pay a visit to: French wikipédia article on khmer architecture in early works.

I think the name of this article is not well choosen. A better name would be "Khmer Architecture" as there are other architectures in Cambodia and Khmer temples that were also built in present-day Thailand, Laos and probably Vietnam.

French:Lozere

i agree it's not a good name because this article is just on ancient khmer architecture in it's hindu temples


some kind of blueprints would be great, could anyone please add some if you know any?(82.131.117.215 18:32, 29 March 2007 (UTC))


The name should be changed as "Architecture of Cambodia" would encompass the entire period from the founding of the kingdom up until present. Under the current name, Vann Molyvann's 1960's architecture would technically fall under this. LionheartPnshmnt (talk) 23:57, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, Lozere, I've corrected your link and really appreciated that work, in spite of my poor French, though I find it somehow "dispersive" Riccardo.fabris (talk)

[edit] Naming

As several people have noted, the content in this article is about Cambodian temple architecture, not Cambodian architecture generally. Moving the existing content to a new article would be fine provided all the links to this page are updated (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Architecture_of_Cambodia ).
