Prasat Beng Mealea Review

Nowadays, many parts of the temple are collapsed by various factors such as nature and war. If visitors want to go inside the temple, they have to walk on the wooden bridge built by the APSARA national Authority.

This temple was built as a Hindu temple. Its primary material is sandstone, and it is largely unrestored, with trees and thick brush thriving amidst its towers and courtyards and many of its stones lying in great heaps.Beng Mealea Temple was built during the reign of king Suryavarman Il in the late 11th century to early 12th century.

Beng Mealea Temple is a historical attraction that is located about 60 kilometer northeast of Siem Reap city and one of the most mysterious temples at Angkor.

Bengmilie, meaning "Lotus Pool", is a Hindu temple and one of the most mysterious and difficult to visit in the Angkor monument complex. The temple collapsed badly, was hidden by trees, and there was no way to go. The temple was surrounded by a wide moat, which has long dried up. Due to the lack of protection, many sculptures have been stolen, and the original and dilapidated atmosphere has created its uniqueness and attracted photographers around the world. There are some wooden plank roads next to the main hall, which was built when the film "Tiger Brother Tiger" was filmed. You can climb the highest stone tower and see the general pattern of the main hall from a high place.

It and Angkor Wat are in two directions, a column in the northeast, it takes more than an hour to two hours to drive from the city, the road is the only regular road in Cambodia, or China's assistance to build! The scenery on the road is very beautiful, it is a super large abandoned Buddhist temple.
