Prei Ky Temple

Originally three brick temples on a common raised laterite base, today, one temple remains standing. The small site is charming, reached by dirt road and nestled amongst trees, surrounded by traces of the original moat. There is also a small monastery here and people often come to pray before the temple. The temple features no decorative carvings but it does have elaborate brickwork emphasizing the pilasters and eaves, with false doors all around continuing on the three upper levels that taper as they rise up. The entrance is on the east with a sandstone doorframe and nearby, decorated octagonal door columns.
