The Royal Ballet of Cambodia is a traditional dance form that has been performed for centuries, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of Cambodia. It is characterized by its graceful movements, elaborate costumes, and intricate hand gestures, which convey stories from Hindu and Buddhist mythology. The ballet is often performed at royal ceremonies and important cultural events. This dance form is deeply rooted in the history of the Khmer Empire and has been preserved through generations. The Royal Ballet was nearly lost during the Khmer Rouge regime but has since been revitalized, playing a crucial role in Cambodia's cultural revival and national identity.
