Alberta’s government, in cooperation with Cambodia’s Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts and MuseumsPartner, is proud to announce the opening of Angkor: The Lost Empire of Cambodia.
The National Museum hosts a collection of significant pieces crafted from metal, pottery, textiles, paintings and daily items from prehistoric times to the modern era. In addition to its collection of artifacts, the museum also collects everyday items and modern artifacts for future display and publicity – especially rare items that may soon be lost to society.
Angkor Wat is an intriguing temple complex in Cambodia that questions the prevailing belief that our civilization is more advanced than those of the past.
