Prasat Prei is located on a small rise featuring what would have been a small compound with a wall surrounding a single sanctuary and ‘library’. At the site today you can still see a standing remnant of the entry gopura (gate), wall, and the library and main temple are still standing.
The main temple albeit small, would have been quite ornate and this can still be seen with the remaining apsara bas-reliefs, decorative roundels, lintel and pediment. Do take notice of the Apsara, one has quite a sinister look about her, while the others are so innocent!
Open Hours: 7.30 AM to 5.30 PM – Angkor Pass is required.
