- | Type: Ancient Remains & Temples
Also known as Baymet, Baymat, or Baimiet Temple (same as the name of the village). Wrapped in thorny overgrowth it’s difficult to determine much about its layout (06/21) bar sneaking a peek through to see a false door on one side, an entry on the other, and an array of tumbled laterite pieces. Cisark notes it to be, perhaps originally, a group of three combined temples constructed of laterite with a front building. Scattered sandstone decorative blocks can be seen.
