  • Ancient Ruins

Ruins covered with large trees several hundred years old.

A vast site of 1000m by 700m surrounded by a wall of laterite.
Originally a Buddhist monastery built by Jayavarman VII, it was converted to a Hindu temple later.
There is a mark that has been scraped off the outer wall, which originally had a sculpture of Buddhism.

Besides the building itself, it is popular for the temple's many trees, such as the giant silk-cotton tree.
The huge trees huge give an eerie and unique atmosphere to the place.
That it why it was the shooting location of the movie "Tomb Raider".

It is a temple that had been hidden for centuries.

Trees

You can see in several places the roots of huge trees, as much as several hundred years old, hunched over the building.
Like a huge monster they seem to swallow the building.
The forces of nature show no respect for the buildings.
Some buildings are on the brink of collapse, but it is possible to feel the passage of time by the presence of trees.
