Lolei, Hindu temple ruins in Roluos Group, Siem Reap, Cambodia

The temple complex features four brick towers arranged in two parallel rows, with intricate Sanskrit inscriptions carved on the doorways and lintels.

King Yasovarman I constructed Lolei temple in 893 CE as the final major structure built in Hariharalaya before relocating the capital to Angkor.

The temple towers were dedicated to royal ancestors and Hindu deities, demonstrating the deep connection between religious practices and royal power.

Visitors need a valid Angkor Archaeological Park pass to access Lolei, which stands 20 kilometers southeast of central Siem Reap.

The temple originally stood on an artificial island within the Indratataka baray, a massive water reservoir measuring 3.8 kilometers by 800 meters.
