Tep Pranam
Tep Pranam is a religious site located within the Angkor archaeological park. It is characterized by a large seated Buddha figure carved from sandstone. Unlike many of the surrounding ruins, this site remains an active place of worship and is frequently visited by pilgrims.
Getting There
The site is located in the Angkor area, accessible from Siem Reap city centre via tuk-tuk or motorbike. The journey typically takes 15 to 20 minutes depending on traffic and the specific starting point in the city.
