Workshop Note
Pre Rup temple in the Angkor Complex. The first temple we visited modeled after mythological "Mt. Meru." Sort of like "Mt. Olympus" it is the home of the Hindu gods. Perfectly square and located at the center of the universe, it is the axis around which the continents and seas are arrayed.
