Highlights
Preah Vihear Temple is unique for its spectacular setting atop a 547-meter hill, its north-south axis layout (uncommon for Khmer temples), and its dramatic architecture that ascends the cliffside, blending with the natural landscape. It features a series of sanctuaries, causeways, and staircases that guide visitors upwards to the final sanctuary, all while offering breathtaking views over the surrounding Cambodian and Thai plains.
Masterpiece of Khmer Architecture: The temple is considered a masterpiece, with its design adapted to the natural landscape and its intricate carvings, many of which depict Hindu deities and mythology.
Dedicated to Shiva: The temple is dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva, dating back primarily to the 11th and 12th centuries, although its history can be traced to the 9th century.
