Baphuon Temple

This Khmer temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva and is more than 100 square meters with a Buddhist fifteenth century style. It is well maintained but it has a complicated structure, built in sandy soil meaning that it is not very solid. There are great efforts made to ensure its preservation and conservation. The long stone corridors that lead to the temple are surrounded by gardens that once were probably lakes. The nice thing about these temples is that they make you imagine what life was like many years ago.
