Temple faces at Angkor Wat emerge from jungle

Carved faces from the still to-be-restored ruins lay on the ground near a lesser known temple at Angkor Wat, a UNESCO site and the largest religious monument in the world. Tourism helps bring in dollars needed to advance this poor country, where the average income is approximately $100/month.
