Overview
Human beings may have roamed the Earth for over 315,000 years — a mere blip in geological terms, but one with far-reaching consequences: wherever people have ventured, they’ve left behind permanent traces of their presence. In fact, we’ve changed the Earth itself. The distinguished Cambridge historian Sir Christopher Clark takes us on the ultimate world tour of man-made masterpieces, cultural achievements, and miracles of nature from the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World to over a thousand sites of incredible treasures listed by the UNESCO world heritage organisation today. A whistle-stop tour across space and through time to some of the most astonishing testaments of human ingenuity and nature’s gems. This is a glossy and gripping series tracing the rise of human civilisation and its astonishing impact on our planet.

In this episode of „Planet of Treasures” Christopher Clark explores the cultural wealth of Southeast Asia: Angkor in Cambodia, the old royal cities of Hue in Vietnam and Luang Prabang in Laos. Angkor once was the biggest city in the world, it was about the size of modern-day Berlin. Nowadays the temple city’s ruins are the largest religious monument in Southeast Asia. Ha Long Bay, the world’s biggest cave in Vietnam and Balinese rice terraces prove that nature and culture often go hand in hand.
