Neang Khmao & Chisor Mountain Temple

Neang Khmao Temple

Constructed of sandstone and brick in the style of Koh Ker, the temple was built by King Jayavarman IV (AD 921-941) in the 10th century for the worship of Brahmanism. The site originally consisted of three temples built side by side, however, only two are still standing, and both are heavily damaged

Chisor Mountain Temple

On the east edge of the mountain, at the back of the temple, there is a prime spot for view and pictures where you can see a vast plain of surrounding rice fields and countryside. From there, looking down to the east can see an avenue that forms a straight line connecting three main features including two outer gates (temples) of cruciform ground plan and a baray:

1. Sen Nimol Temple: now heavily grown, situated just below the mountain;
2. Sen Roveang Temple: a stately building now used as a Buddhist sanctuary about 800m from Sen Nimol Temple;
3. Tonle Om : the ancient baray of Phnom Chisor Temple
