Wat Koh Keo (Battambang)

Area: Battambang Province > Sangkae District > Anlong Vil Commune
| Type: Ancient Remains & Temples

Contemporary monastery and pagoda located 4km east of Battambang city and just south of the RN 5 in Anlong Vil Village. It features two pagodas, one larger contemporary pagoda and one dating from the late-1800s – early 1900s. The older pagoda has been restored in recent times and it is demarcated by older-style stone sema encased in lotus buds, and, closed at the time, we managed to sneak a peak that it retains its statuary and pedestal from the era.
