- Area: Siem Reap Province > Krong Siem Reab > Sangkat Nokor Thum
- | Type: Ancient Remains & Temples
An uncleared and partially excavated site, now overgrown, where several pedestals can be seen, some molded sandstone plinths, and sema stone featuring the god Yama (God of Death/Justice and the Underworld). While the site as we see it today is believed to be the remnants of a Buddhist Terrace of the late or post-Angkor period, seeing Yama (a Hindu god) is an interesting thread to follow and how that particular Hindu god is still revered through the transition to Theravadan Buddhism.
