Preah Palilay & Tep Pranam Temple - 9th Century to the Present - Angkor Thom Cambodia
Tep Pranam ប្រាសាទទេពប្រណម្យ is a temple with a giant seated Buddha, built from sandstone blocks is still worshiped here. The interior of the figure re-uses many stone blocks while the head appears somewhat later.
To the north of the Terrace of the Leper King and the Royal palace, the image is approached from the east along a 75m laterite causeway, 8m wide. This causeway ends on the west in a terrace with double sema (Buddhist boundary markers) at the corners and on the axes. The building housing the image would have been in wood, long since disappeared and was constructed on a cruciform foundation.
Preah Palilay ប្រាសាទព្រះបាលិលេយ្យ is a temple at Angkor, Cambodia. It is located in Angkor Thom, 400 m north-west of Phimeanakas. This small Buddhist sanctuary in the wooded area north of the Royal palace in Angkor Thom has a number of attractive features and is well worth the short detour.
The coexistence of Hindu and Buddhist elements and lacking of foundation stele or inscriptions make somewhat difficult dating this temple. It is generally ascribed to Jayavarman VIII reign, but it seems difficult to explain how the Buddhist imagery could have survived from the iconoclast fury of that epoch. Maybe it was built in different periods: the sanctuary in the first half of 12th century, while the gopura in the late 13th or early 14th century.
At the present time there is a little Buddhist monastery near the temple and the presence of the monks in its area is not uncommon to see at this temple.
These sites are rarely visited due to being near the Terrace of the Leper King as well as the Royal Palace and Bayon Temple. If you have time it’s nice to walk through and see the ruins from the 9th century up to the present day with the Buddhist temple.
