Wat Preah Ang Thom, also known as the Reclining Buddha on Phnom Kulen (Kulen Mountain), is a magnificent 8-meter-long sandstone statue carved directly into a large rock face. It dates back to the 16th century and depicts the Buddha at the time of achieving nirvana. Positioned atop Kulen Mountain, the site is both a major pilgrimage destination and a place of natural beauty—visitors climb a staircase to reach the sheltered statue and often pause at nearby Buddha’s footprints and elephant-flanked naga balustrades. Beyond its serene setting, the Reclining Buddha holds deep historical significance, with inscriptions from the post-Angkorian period suggesting its notable status across the region. In essence, Wat Preah Ang Thom offers a powerful blend of spiritual resonance, ancient craftsmanship, and scenic mountain surroundings.
Travelers can swim or relax in the natural pools at the waterfall, enjoy the cool forest air, and take in scenic views of the river and rocky surroundings. This peaceful spot offers a refreshing break in nature.
