Initially Angkor Wat was built as a Hindu temple. It was dedicated to God Vishnu. Later, the temple gradually became a Buddhist worship place.

The Angkor Wat temple was built in the early 12th century by the Khmer Empire, by Khmer King Suryavarman II in Yasodharapura, which was the capital city of Khmer Empire.
