Trapeang Chambak Temple (Siem Reap)

Located at the base of Phnom Bok are the remains of a small square temple brick, open to the east. The doorframe and one column remain standing, along with part of the brick structure whose complete collapse has been averted with the help of tree roots binding what remains.

Behind the site is a well, possibly indicating that there was more than one tower on the site or that what we see was part of something much larger. There is also a decayed but beautiful lintel sitting in front of the site possibly displaying Indra on Airvata with lions at each end.

You can access the site from the road that runs around the base of the mountain.
