Advantages of Prasat Preah Vihear

Prasat Preah Vihear is a sacred shrine which is located on the very high and smooth plateau along the Dang Rek Mountain about 625 metters in Preah Vihear province. The atmosphere around this temple is cool, smoggy, temperate, and perfect landscapes. This temple decorated with many styles. Recently, we had introduced Preah Vihear into the World Heritage which prepared by UNESCO on 7th July, 2008. It gives us some important benefits.

First, we can preserve our territorial integrity and cultures. We can germinate conscience to all Khmer in all generations to love and glorify our cultures, we also change this area to become the world tourists target both local and the international, so we can reduce poverty by providing many kinds of services to Khmer people, Other important benefit is that we’ll get fund from UNESCO for preserve and maintain this world heritage.

Second, it’ll be acknowledged internationalize and it has its own values for the world. They’ll spread to the world what they have seen in Cambodia when they are back to their own home country. More or less the number of tourists in our country will be increasing and they’ll spread and ask for help from other country especially developed country.

In conclusion, we can get many benefits both inside and outside our country, so we should try all our best to preserve and conserve our temples not only Preah Vihear but also all Khmer ancient temples because those are the priceless heritages form our ancestors.
