Prasat Aop Neang

Located around 400m south of the Rahal Baray at Koh Ker, also recorded as Prasat Kraham, it is a small square brick temple that opens to the east with sandstone door frame and decorated columns topped with an unfinished lintel.

Historical Notes

200m away, west of Pr. Khna 208 is Pr. Kraham the “red prasat”, so named because it is made of brick. It is a small building open to the East, in a redentrant square, with false doors and a door.

It does not present anything special inside. The true lintel with dowels of the E door does not reach the wall; it is discharged by a ruined bow; the decorative lintel is hollowed out by a triangle behind. Outside, the building has a base common to the whole; its cornice carries floors very slightly reduced in width.
