Prasat Kravan
Prasat Kravan is a 10th-century temple located within the Angkor archaeological park. It consists of five towers constructed from red brick and was dedicated to the god Vishnu. Visitors go here to observe antique brick architecture and detailed carvings from the early Angkorian period.
Getting There
The temple is located south of the Srah Srang reservoir. From Siem Reap city centre, it is typically reached by tuk-tuk or hired vehicle. The journey takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes depending on traffic and the specific route taken through the park.
