All about the trip
Great for a day trip, travel about 50 kilometers outside Phnom Penh to visit some traditional and lesser-visited Khmer temples. This spectacular site is a mere hour and a half’s drive from Phnom Penh and a short hop from the well-preserved Jayavarman VII temple of Ta Phrom at Tonle Bati, as well as the excellent wildlife rehabilitation center of Phnom Tamao. Lunch is at your own expense.
Although some of the brick towers may originate from an earlier date, the temple is generally dated to the early 11th century and the reign of King Suryarvarman I as one of his four cardinal point temples. Phnom Chisor marked the southern boundary of his empire, Ek Phnom in Battambang and Preah Vihear marked the west and north respectively, while the location of the east temple is unknown.
