Prei Prasat (Kok Chan Village)

Once a group of three temples aligned north-south and open to the east with moat according to reports, its hard to tell today. What remains is the laterite base structure that is still topped with some of the bricks that would have formed one of the small square brick towers. Sandstone blocks can be seen and the moat still functions during the rainy season. The site is surrounded by farmlands, reached only by local village moto/foot trails and has become heavily overgrown (2021).

There are a lot of sites using the name “Prei Prasat” in fact there is another to the north, this one does not seen seem to have an IK number and have found no historical images/data matching to the site (but there probably is some I am sure).
