Sambor Prei Kuk Temple

This temple is located in Kampong Thom province and is around 160 kilometres from Siem Reap town. It’s located near the eastern part of the Tonle Sap Lake and it’s a large complex divided into three main groups. Each group is shaped in a square and surrounded by a large brick wall. It’s though that this temple was built in the 7th century by Isanavarman I and each group could have been constructed at different times. This would mean that this is a pre-Angkorian temple built by the Chenla.

During the American bombing of Cambodia in the early 1970s, US aircraft bombed areas inside the archaeological complex and you can still see the craters left. On top of this guerrilla fights for the Khmer Rouge left many landmines in the area. These were cleared in 2008 although tourists are still advised not to stray off the beaten path.
