The Skeleton Lake of Roopkund, Uttarakhand, India

Roopkund is a high altitude glacial lake in Uttarakhand, India, lies in the lap of Trishul massif and famous due to hundreds of human skeletons found at the edge of the lake.
The lake, known as ‘Skeleton Lake’, is situated at an altitude of 5,029 meters, in the Himalayas. Every year, when the snow melts, one can see hundreds of scattered skulls. The skeletons were first found by a British forest guard in 1942. Initially, it was believed that the skeletons were those of Japanese soldiers who had died while crossing that route during World War II. But scientists have now found out that the skeletons were of pilgrims and locals as the bodies dated to around 850 AD.

Angkor Wat

This is a temple complex at Angkor, Cambodia, built by King Suryavarman II in the early 12th century as his state temple and capital city. As the best-preserved temple at the site, it is the only one to have remained a significant religious centre since its foundation – first Hindu, dedicated to the god Vishnu, then Buddhist. The temple is at the top of the high classical style of Khmer architecture. It has become a symbol of Cambodia, appearing on its national flag, and it is the country’s prime attraction for visitors.
