Q. “Angkor Vat”- the world’s largest Hindu temple located in which of the following country?

[A] Thailand

[B] Singapore

[C] Myanmar

[D] Cambodia

Answer: D
Notes:

Deep in the jungles of Cambodia, the world’s largest Hindu temple – the Angkor Vat is situated. However, it is just one of the many Hindu temples in South East Asia. The sea-faring activities of the Chola Empire, Kaling Empire etc. brought the religion in these parts and gave rise to many Hindu dynasties – the Champa civilisation in Vietnam, the Khmer empire in Indochina and the Majapahit Empire in Java.
