Deep in the Cambodian Jungle, a ruined city crumbles among the roots of banyan trees. Series host Paul Cooper looks at the Khmer Empire of medieval Cambodia, and their capital, the ancient mega-city of Angkor. He explores how this great civilization rose to a size and wealth virtually unprecedented in the world, how it overcame the challenges of its climate and landscape, and all the factors that led to its final, dramatic collapse.
