Description
One of over 200 faces of Bayon temple appears to me to be weeping green tears, Caused by a plant growing from a joint in the stones.
Bayon temple is a Buddhist temple located at the center of Angkor Thom, a ancient capital city of the Khmer empire, and was constructed in the late 12th to early 13th century by king Jayavarman VII. The faces are believed to represent the bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara but were modeled after the king.
Bayon temple and Angkor Thom along with Angkor Wat and many other sites are part of Angkor Archaeological Park near the town of Siem Reap, Cambodia.
