Phnom Da Temple ប្រាសាទភ្នំដា

#familytrips2024 The temple is located on top of the hill in the ancient region of Angkor Borei. Prasat Phnom Da is a well-preserved brick temple, date back to the Funan era of the 1st to 6th centuries, the temple we see today was built around the 11th century, possibly replacing -be an earlier site. This site is historically significant. The sculptures from the temple are in both the National Museum in Phnom Penh and a few are in the Angkor Borei museum nearby. When I went they were working on reconstructing the roof. It is situated atop a hill which will require walking up a few flights of stairs. Mosquitoes were about so bring insect repellant. There are important caves, one of which has the Yoni pedestal for a missing Shivalingam.
