Tep Pranam

Tep Pranam is a temple located within the Angkor archaeological park in Siem Reap. The site is characterized by a large seated Buddha statue carved from sandstone. While it is an ancient structure, it continues to function as an active place of worship for locals and visitors.

Getting There

The temple is located within the Angkor ruins, a short distance from the Siem Reap city centre. Most travellers reach the site via tuk-tuk or motorbike. Depending on traffic and the specific starting point in the city, the journey typically takes 15 to 20 minutes.

Visit Duration

Because the site is focused on a primary central figure and a small temple area, visitors generally spend 30 to 60 minutes here.

When to Visit

To avoid the midday heat, early morning or late afternoon visits are recommended. Like many sites in the Angkor complex, it can become crowded during the peak tourist season. Visitors should dress modestly as it remains a functioning religious site.
