I'm afraid this will happen when I visit Angkor Wat, that it will be so built up. In Japan, I was always thrown off by a petrol station being smack next to an old old shrine. Pretty wild!
We just got back from a "family resort" in the Catskills. I didn't even realize places like this existed anymore, so it was a shock to discover that at least one does, and is full all summer with families who have been going there every summer for decades. I had always visualized the Catskills as dark & depressing with musty cabins buried under damp forest. Instead, it was clean and quaint with wide open sunny spaces and beautiful views.
