The magnificent jungle temples of Cambodia were produced by the Khmer civilization, beginning as early as the eighth and extending through the fourteenth century A.D ("Dinosaurs in ancient Cambodian temple").

I also found out some really neat facts like their language Cambodian consist of 5 different dialects which are Battambang, spoken in the north, Phnom Penh, the capital dialect, Northern Khmer, spoken by ethnic Khmer native, Khmer Krom or Southern Khmer, spoken by indigenous Khmer people of the Mekong Delta, and Cardamom Khmer, spoken by a small population in the Cardamom mountains and Central Thailand. Their language is influenced by Vietnamese, Thai, Lao, and Cham. Their language is the second most widely spoken of Austroasictic language after Vietnamese.
I hope you have enjoy reading about my experience exploring Cambodia and has influenced to explore and try understand other cultures to increase your knowledge of the many different cultures around us.
