Baksei Chamkrong - 10th Century Khmer Pyramid Temple - Angkor Thom Cambodia 2024
Prasat Baksei Chamkrong ប្រាសាទបក្សីចាំក្រុង
It is a small but perfectly formed pyramid temple situated just to the southwest of the south entrance to Angkor Thom.
Apart from larger, more complex pyramid sites such as Prasat Ta Keo, Prasat Phnom Bakheng or Prasat Bakong this simple but effective style is surprisingly rare among small to medium temples and Baksei Chamkrong is then an obvious precursor to the slightly later Prasat Phimeanakas.
The steep, 4-tier laterite pyramid has stairs at each of the cardinal directions with a single brick tower (perhaps a later Rajendravarman period addition) filling the upper level. It was originally surrounded by an enclosing wall with eastern gopura of which only traces remain.
Most of the original stucco on the shrine has long gone but the eastern doorway still houses a spectacular Indra lintel. An important inscription was also found at this site.
There are several smaller temples nearby as well as the very popular Phnom Bakheng on the hill to the south. It’s also a short distance from one of the most popular photo spots of the south entrance to Angkor Thom.
It’s a nice temple and away from the crowds so you can explore on your own.
Enjoy the video!
