Angkor Wat, Cambodia
32 images; click to enlarge

Angkor Wat is an enormous complex of temples in Cambodia, built by the Khmer empire between the 9th and 14th centuries. When that empire faded, the temples were abandoned to the jungle. In more recent times, archeologists have been working to understand and restore the structures here, but my favorite places are the ones where you can still see the jungle trying to reclaim the stonework.
