Contemporary monastery and pagoda located around 6km west of Battambang city. Immediately west of the pagoda is an interesting development that appears at first sight to be the trace of an old banteay, perhaps similar to Kampaeng Stoeng Preah Srok just west of Siem Reap along the ancient road. Or it could just be a development from later times, locals there at the time were unsure too, regardless, inside the enclosure is a mound featuring a shrine so there is certainly more to the story. There are also some nice views over to Wat Phnom Sampov.
