Lost Temples of Cambodia follows British archaeologist Pauline Carroll as she travels to Cambodia, home of the ancient Khmer Empire and its great capital, Angkor. She journeys across the country meeting experts and exploring world-famous temple sites, Angkor Wat, The Bayon, and Ta Prohm. She also discovers lost cities emerging from the jungle where the empire began nearly 1300 years ago.
From the majestic, awe-inspiring Angkor Wat (the world's largest religious monument), all the way to the latest archaeological discoveries buried deep in the Cambodian jungle, this series goes on the hunt for vanished ruins, lost cities, hidden temples – and tells a cutting-edge story of an ancient civilisation.
Myth-busting old tropes, and with fresh expert perspectives and stunning photography, the films describe the archaeological breakthroughs that have transformed our understanding of this most mysterious of ancient worlds.
Angkor Wat is a name that most people recognise but know very little about. From its ninth century beginnings in the recently discovered first capital, this series follows the empire at its peak under its most powerful king, and through to its mysterious decline just over 600 years later. With British archaeologist, Pauline Carroll, we go on a journey to visit breath-taking temples and ancient sites, while charting the extraordinary rise and fall of the ancient Angkorian Empire in Cambodia.
Pauline is given access to ongoing archaeological work, helping us to better understand life in one of the world's greatest ancient civilisations, and finally discovers how, after centuries of enormous success, the empire finally declined. She also follows the story of one of history's greatest kings, Jayavarman VII, who created the world's first free national health service.

Part 1: Angkor Wat
British Archaeologist Pauline Carroll travels to Cambodia to explore the capital of the ancient Khmer Empire, Angkor, home to the world's largest temple, Angkor Wat. She discovers the huge carved stone galleries of the Bayon temple, which record daily life in their intricate imagery. Finally, she travels to the remote Cambodian jungle where Angkor's predecessor, the former capital of Mahendraparvarta has been discovered, to learn about the roots of this once great Empire, in its very first capital.
Part 2: Angkor to Banteay Chhmar
In the capital of the ancient Khmer Empire, Angkor, known for the world's largest temple, Angkor Wat, British archaeologist Pauline Carroll discovers the empire's greatest king, Jayavarman VII. Following his military victories, unprecedented building projects and how he shifted the state religion from Hinduism to Buddhism, Pauline also learns that he established the world's first free national health service. She visits Jayavarman VII's second city, a lesser known and mysterious site that is still being uncovered, called Banteay Chhmar, which reveals the extent of his ambition.
Part 3: Banteay Toap to Angkor
After learning about King Jayavarman VII's second city of Banteay Chhmaar, British archaeologist Pauline Carroll visits a nearby site called Banteay Toap – potentially a lost city from the same time, until recently unknown to archaeology. She returns to the ancient Khmer Empire's birthplace in the hills of Phnom Kulen to see where remote populations of hermits once lived, and returns to Angkor once more to understand how this once great civilisation finally fell.
