Kingdom of Cambodia

 Kingdom of Cambodia 🇰🇭🐉is a country that is steeped in history and tradition, with classical Cambodian ballet -or Apsara dancing -held in high esteem across the country. Evidence of this delicate form of dancing can be seen etched into the walls of ancient temples, as well as when watching the string of talented dancers who put on shows across the country today. Here’s the lowdown on Apsara’s origins and the best spots to watch this type of dancing.

❤️Apsara Dancing:

Since the spirits are meant to entrap mortals with their beauty, the dance moves reflect this idea and include slow-paced, mesmerising moves that hypnotize audiences.The main traits of the dance are the hand gestures, and more than 1,500 exist. Each movement of the fingers has its own distinct meaning, from worshiping the spirits of nature by depicting a flower in bloom to referencing one of the hundreds of Buddhist and Hindu legends.

The dance is so complex that girls start training from a young age to ensure they gain the flexibility that is needed in their hands and feet to carry out the graceful and intricate moves, which make it look like the women are floating on clouds.

Apsaras are identified by their elaborate costume, which is comprised of elegant silk clothing, stunning jewelled headdresses and precious necklaces, earrings, bracelets and anklets.
