When was Angkor Wat in Khmer Kingdom built?

At the beginning of the 8th century, Cambodia was divided into five principalities, and it became easier for Java to conquer it. However, the rule of the new regime did not last long. In 802, Chayawaman II seized the state power, declared the independence of the Khmer Kingdom, dedicated to the God King, and began to build the national religious center-Angkor Wat.

With the growth of the country's economic strength and the strength of the Khmer king, the architecture of Angkor Wat is becoming more and more luxurious. Angkor Wat was finally built by King Chaya Waman II in the 7th century, and the city was very beautiful in its most prosperous period. It covers an area of 900 hectares, and every wall around it extends almost 3 kilometers. Diego de Couto, a well-informed Portuguese chronicler, described Angkor as "the most beautiful, well-equipped and clean city on earth."
