Ta Nei

Ta Nei is a sandstone temple constructed during the late 12th century under the reign of King Jayavarman VII. Located near the northwest corner of the East Baray reservoir, it serves as a representative example of the architectural style of that era. Travelers visit this site to see its preserved stone structures and its position within the broader Angkor archaeological park.

Getting There

The temple is located outside the main city center of Siem Reap. Most visitors reach the site via tuk-tuk or private vehicle from the city. The journey typically takes 20 to 30 minutes depending on traffic and the specific starting point within the city.

Visit Duration

Due to its size and layout, visitors generally spend between 30 and 60 minutes exploring the grounds.

When to Visit

The site is best visited during the early morning or late hours of the day to avoid the midday heat. The dry season is the standard time for visits to the Angkor region. Compared to the primary temples in the park, this location typically experiences fewer crowds.
