Angkor: Power, Myth, and Impressive Architecture
Angkor represents a cultural heritage of extraordinary radiance. The monumental temples, born from the dream of a ruler, tell of kingship, religion, and the art of envisioning a whole metropolis in stone. In the live report, this historical panorama unfolds with powerful images and precise commentary.

A Journey Through Pain, Hope, and New Beginnings
The event also highlights the dark chapter of the Khmer Rouge and the millions of victims in a country that suffered under violence for a long time. At the same time, it showcases today's Cambodia with its nature reserves on the Mekong, the Tonle Sap, and the enchanted ruins of Angkor. This contrast makes the evening a cultural enrichment with depth. ([augustinum.de](https://augustinum.de/diessen-am-ammersee/kultur-und-aktivitaeten/veranstaltungskalender/))
