Also recorded (by Google Maps) as Prasat Wat Prasat (Khmer: ប្រាសាទវត្តប្រាសាទ). It’s an ancient temple site, still surrounded by its original moat, that now features a contemporary pagoda. Remains of the ancient temple are collected beside the pagoda including remnants of a lintel featuring a beautiful trio of elephants supporting an idol likely to have been Indra, sandstone plinths, round pedestal with a spout, door columns, deposit stone and other remnants.
