You Can Now Explore Angkor Wat With Google Street View

 After finding all the Pokemon using Google Maps, take a break to visit Angkor Wat.

The tech giant recently dispatched its ubiquitous Street View cars and 40-pound ‘Trekker’ backpacks to capture over 90,000 panoramic images, allowing users ‘walk’ through Cambodia’s massive temple complex.

A virtual visit to Angkor Wat may pale in comparison to the real thing, but for those who don’t live a stone’s throw away, it’s a nifty way to get a healthy dose of escapism.

In addition to the maps, the Google Cultural Institute offers additional images, renderings and videos.
