contributes to the irrigation of Angkor. The bed of the river is lavishly
sculpted. Numerous lingas lay there, caressed by the crystal – clear
waters. Bas-reliefs depict scenes from the Brahman pantheon such as Vishnu
lying, his head sheltered by a Naga (a snake with multiple heads) or
Brahma born out of a lotus. According to inscriptions found there, the
site was decorated from 1054 onwards. Enjoy a Picnic lunch in a serene
