Prei Prasat (Trapeang Prei)

Prasat Prei, also known as Prasat Trapeang Prei, is a square laterite temple with a basin on the north and south. The temple, unusually, opens to the south and features a sandstone doorframe that is flanked by decorated door columns that are notable for their style. It has a tiered laterite base with steps on each side leading to false doors bar the southern entrance. Inside, an upturned pedestal retains some beautiful decoration typical of Koh Ker sites.

To the north and south are two basins, and another to the east which is passed along the route also features remnants of an ancient site including a pedestal.
