Kraol Kantheay

A partially cleared area where you can see the remains of a laterite wall. According to reports in the mid-1900s by Henri Mauger, the locals called it a turtle pit while he suggested it to be more likely for elephants or rhinoceros having the remains of an outer laterite wall with two openings enclosing a circular wall.
