Travel trivia: Where is Angkor Wat?

Posted on January 10th, 2011 by Laura Byrne Paquet in Travel Trivia

Angkor Wat was lost in the jungle until Father Albert Henri Mouhot found it, in the 1860s, in what country?

  • Bangladesh
  • Bhutan
  • Cambodia
  • India

Think you know the answer? Send it to me as a comment at the bottom of this post. At the end of the week, I’ll draw one name from all the people who answered correctly, and that person will receive this week’s prize: a jazzy water bottle from Tourism New Brunswick.

Come back tomorrow for another travel trivia question and another chance to win the water bottle! And if you can’t wait until then for your trivia fix, check out my husband Paul’s trivia site, TriviaHallOfFame.com. (He supplied this question, BTW.)

This contest closes at 5:00pm EST on Friday, January 14, 2011.
