Beng Mealea or Boeng Mealea, is a temple from the Angkor Wat period : 118–119 located 40 km (25 mi) east of the main group of temples at Angkor, Cambodia
Koh Ker is a remote archaeological site in northern Cambodia about 120 kilometres (75 mi) away from Siem Reap and the ancient site of Angkor.
Prasat Pram (Koh Ker) is one of the most iconic temples in the Koh Ker archaeological complex, famous for its five brick towers slowly being embraced by massive tree roots. Built in the 10th century during the reign of King Jayavarman IV, the temple was dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva. Its remote jungle setting, atmospheric ruins, and dramatic vegetation create a mysterious “lost temple” feeling, making it a favorite site for photography and adventurous travelers exploring beyond Angkor.
Prasat Chen (Koh Ker) is an important temple within the Koh Ker complex, built in the 10th century under King Jayavarman IV and dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva. The temple once housed remarkable statues depicting epic Hindu scenes, many of which are now preserved in museums. With its laterite and sandstone structures set amid quiet forest surroundings, Prasat Chen offers visitors a peaceful atmosphere and a glimpse into the artistic and religious heritage of Koh Ker’s former royal capital.
Prasat Neang Khmau (Koh Ker), meaning “Black Lady Temple,” is a small yet distinctive shrine in the Koh Ker archaeological site dating to the 10th century, during the reign of King Jayavarman IV. Built primarily of dark sandstone, the temple is believed to have been dedicated to a female Hindu deity. Surrounded by forest and quiet ruins, it offers visitors an intimate look at the religious devotion and architectural style of Koh Ker, Cambodia’s short-lived ancient capital.
Prasat Linga 1 (Prasat Thnoeng) is a small brick temple within the Koh Ker archaeological complex, dating to the 10th century under King Jayavarman IV. The shrine once housed a sacred linga — a symbol of the Hindu god Shiva — reflecting Koh Ker’s strong Shaivite worship during its time as the Khmer capital. Though modest in size, the temple’s quiet forest setting and ancient remains provide visitors with an authentic glimpse of early Angkorian religious architecture.
Prasat Krachap (Koh Ker) is a group of small brick shrines in the Koh Ker archaeological complex, built in the 10th century during the reign of King Jayavarman IV. The temples feature simple yet elegant early Angkorian architecture and were dedicated to Hindu worship, likely honoring Shiva. Nestled among trees and lesser-visited ruins, Prasat Krachap offers a peaceful atmosphere and a deeper look into the everyday religious life of the ancient Khmer capital.
