bante02.jpg (148408 bytes)967 AD. Rajendravarman II Jayavarman V Hindu (Shiva)

A temple in the forest 25 Kilometers to the norht east of Angkor Thom.  A jewel to which the nature of the material used - a finely textured rose colored sandstone - is perfectly suited. Monumental size and architectural theme give way to a miniature scale and a dense and exquisite detail in near perfect preservation.   Dismantled and reconstructed between 1931 and 1936. Good in the morning but check security before visiting.
