- Area: Siem Reap Province > Soutr Nikom District > Khnar Pô Commune
- | Type: Ancient Remains & Temples
Located 380m south-southeast of Banteay Ampil temple and 190m south of the ancient East Road, the site features traces of an ancient temple with sandstone fragments and blocks. It’s recorded on Google Maps as “គ្រឹះប្រាសាទជាន់លេច”.
The site sits in the centre of an undeveloped area measuring around 140m x 140m, surrounded by village homes. The traces of the temple all appear in the southwest corner of this area, while there is a small pond/basin in the northeast corner.
The remnants include window baluster, corner finials, wall finials, pediment and pilaster fragments. Style-wise, the elements all appear to relate to a 13th-century development; a hospital chapel or firehouse comes to mind.
