Angkor: the women of Angkor

From all the carvings and reliefs at Angkor, some of my favourite images were of the apsaras and devatas.  Asparas or celestial mynphs are sensuous graceful females which adorn the temple walls.  Those who dance or fly are referred to as apsaras, while the standing figures are called devatas.
