Wat Ek Phnom
Wat Ek Phnom is an impressive Angkorian temple located about 9 kilometers north of Battambang city, on the left bank of the Sangkae River near the small creek of Prek Daun Taev, northwest of the Peam Aek area. Built in the early 11th century under the reign of King Suryavarman I, this Hindu temple is dedicated to the god Shiva. The temple features a central sanctuary surrounded by the remains of several satellite structures and is known for its beautifully carved lintels and sandstone architecture. Though partially collapsed, it still offers a glimpse into the grandeur of ancient Khmer craftsmanship and religious devotion.
