Preah Khan Temple

Posted by   on Pinterest


Built: Late twelfth century C.E.

Religion: Buddhist

Lord/Patron: Jayavarman VII

Style: Bayon

Preah Khan was based on the site of Jayavarman VII's triumph over the attacking Chams in 1191.

In its prime, this was the focal point of a considerable association with just about 100,000 authorities and workers. This sanctuary is level in outline, with a fundamental arrangement of progressive rectangular exhibitions around a Buddhist asylum confused by Hindu satellite sanctuaries and various later augmentations. With various trees and other vegetation developing among the vestiges, Preah Khan has been left to a great extent unrestored.
