[Cambodia/Siem Reap] Banteay Kdei Temple in Siem Reap, with its charming tranquil appearance

Banteay Kdei Temple in Siem Reap is part of the Angkor Wat, and has a quiet and tranquil atmosphere. 🛕

Built by Jayavarman VII in the late 12th century, this temple was used as a Buddhist temple, but unlike Ta Prohm, it is not covered in jungle and has been relatively well restored, making it an easy-to-visit ruin. 🚶♂️

Banteay Kdei means "fortress of the monks," and is characterized by its complex structure based on a square layout!

There are many corridors and courtyards, and numerous shrines and towers are scattered inside!

Visitors can stroll around the temple in a relatively quiet environment, feeling the religious life of the ancient Khmer Empire. ✨

Beautiful sculptures and reliefs remain inside the temple, and the Apsara (heavenly maiden) sculptures are one of the highlights. 👍

However, compared to other Angkor temples, it is smaller in scale and many parts are in a state of collapse, giving it a unique charm as a ruin. ✨

In addition, the number of tourists is relatively small, making it an ideal place for those who want to avoid crowds and explore the ruins quietly.

Banteay Kdei is a temple with a quiet charm among the Angkor ruins, and is a hidden attraction where you can enjoy the historical atmosphere and tranquility.

📍Location: Angkor Archaeological Park, Krong Siem Reap 17000 Cambodia
