　　The city of Angkor was the capital of the Khmer Empire from the 9th to the 15th centuries.The Khmer Empire was one of the most prosperous kingdoms in the history of Southeast Asia，and its prosperity was expressed through a wide range of architecture.

　　The city of Angkor was founded on political and religious ideas adapted from India，and the temples of Angkor were intended as a place of worship for the king and a way for him to ensure his immortality through identification with the Hindu gods.

　　Angkor Wat was first built by King Suryavarman Ⅱ in the 12th century as a vast funerary temple that would hold his remains，symbolically confirming his permanent identity with Vishnu.

　　During its six centuries as imperial capital，Angkor went through many changes in architectural styles and in religion.The city of Angkor transferred itself from the Hindu god Shiva to the Hindu god Vishnu，and finally to the Mahayana Buddhist goddess Avalokitesvara.

　　By the late 13th century，the once frenzied pace of Angkor's architectural pursuits had begun to die down，and a more restrained type of religion was on the rise under the growing influence of Theravada Buddhism.

　　At the same time，Angkor and the Khmer Empire were increasingly threatened and attacked by invading armies.By the 16th century，the golden age of Angkor was over and many of the great temples began to move back into the jungle.

　　From the 15th to 19th centuries，Theravada Buddhist monks cared for Angkor Wat，and it is thanks to them that the temple remains mostly intact.Angkor Wat became one of the most important pilgrimage sites in Southeast Asia.Angkor Wat is the best preserved example of Khmer architecture in Cambodia and is so grand in design that some rank it among the seven wonders of the world.It appears on the Cambodian national flag，a very rare instance of a flag with an image of a building.

　　Notes：

　　symbolically adv.象征性地　②frenzied adj.发狂的

　　③intact adj.完整的　④pilgrimage n.朝拜

　　As a champion of both modern and post­modern art，New York's historic Guggenheim Museum is a bastion of originality，burning bright amidst the Big Apple's wide range of galleries and museums.

　　The image of New York in art and popular culture has long been recognized.In the world of painting and photography，among a host of other art forms，New York has been one of the central muses of the art world.Amidst its host of world­renowned galleries are the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA)，the Metropolitan Museum and，perhaps most interestingly，the Guggenheim Museum.

　　In terms of both its art and architecture，the Guggenheim Museum is one of New York's most interesting landmarks; as such，it's an essential stop­off point for any culture lovers in the city.Originally established in 1937 as “The Museum of Non­Objective Painting”，the Guggenheim was established with the primary' aim of showcasing the work of early modernists; to this day the museum continues to maintain ongoing exhibits of the art of Wassily Kandinsky and Jackson Pollock.Its more recent exhibitions have included eclectic collections: Robert Mapplethorpe and the Classical Traditions，the work of Iraqi­born artists Zaha Hadid and an exhibition of photos showing sculptor David Smith at work.

　　The Guggenheim Museum is not only notable for its excellent art collections，but also for its fundamental architectural beauty.Situated at the corner of 89th Street and 5th Avenue in Manhattan，the Guggenheim Museum was designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright，one of the most influential American architects of the early twentieth century.Looking somewhat like a coiled­up white ribbon，it is generally recognized as one of the defining features of New York's diverse architectural landscape.
