The Angkor wat was built by the Khmer people. It was built between 800 and 1100 AD, but it was partially lost to the ravages of time for a long portion of its history after it was converted to a Buddhist temple in the late 12th century. This temple is mostly noticeable  for its complex architecture and unusual orientation with the Earth and certain astrological signs. I hope this will help u

Answer:

Breaking from the Shaiva tradition of previous kings, Angkor Wat was instead dedicated to Vishnu. As the best-preserved temple at the site, it is the only one to have remained a significant religious centre since its foundation. The temple is at the top of the high classical style of Khmer architecture.
