Angkor, Ta Phrom

The outer wall measures 1km east-west and 650m north-south, certainly big enough to accomodate the 12,640 people mentioned in the temple's inscription. Within, another wall 250m x 220m marks the fourth enclosure (numbered, as usual with Khmer temples, from centre outwards). Similiar proportions are repeated at Preah Khan and Banteay Kdei, which were built at about the same time.
