Local monastery, The Temple of 5000 Buddhas and Northeast Region Vipassana Center, with a fascinating vision and construction program underway (Jan 2022). In the future perhaps, one hopes, an icon of contemporary Buddhism in Cambodia. Actually, I really look forward to a return visit especially to wander through the field of Buddhas, seemingly so methodically placed with an aura of zen not often felt in Cambodia.
