Wat Banteay Dei 

Located in central Pursat city, it’s an older pagoda retaining its original inner murals, decorative pediments, and features. I am not sure of its exact foundation date, perhaps what we see dates to around the mid-1900s. The pagoda also features a beautifully decorated balan (pedestal for the Buddha) and outside, an equally beautifully decorated stupa.

The stupa/chedi, a reliquary, funerary, or decorative, I don’t know.
