Trees grow high on the stones of Ta Prohm temple. The roots grow down towards the grown, almost suffocating and crushing the stone structure underneath. Most of the temples at Angor Wat have been cleared of trees and plants. Ta Prohm has been left as it was found 150 years ago with nature taking the land back.
Ta Prohm's modern fame comes from its role in the movie Tomb Raider. Roots of this banyan tree take over and crush the stone structures below.
