Also recorded as Phnom Del Pagoda, it’s a contemporary monastery and pagoda set atop a small rise that offers views over the fields and villages below. On the east side of the pagoda, you can see a large rock monolith and remnants from an ancient site including a pedestal featuring an embossed Garuda, a carved depiction of a female figure, two lions, along with several bollards (?) placed around the pagoda as sema stones. These sema all share the same shape and size while featuring unique decoration. To the south is Wat Sovankiri and up the larger rise of Phnom Cheung Chhnok is Wat Taing Sré.
