Banteay Kdei, Buddhist temple in Angkor archaeological park, Cambodia.
The temple features four entrance gates adorned with stone faces, connected by galleries leading to a central sanctuary with carved decorations.
Constructed in 1185 under King Jayavarman VII, the temple served as a Buddhist monastery and education center during the Khmer Empire period.
The temple walls display numerous carved reliefs depicting traditional Buddhist stories, female divinities, and scenes from daily life in ancient Cambodia.
Visitors can explore the temple complex through a marked path that guides them through galleries, courtyards, and halls over approximately one hour.
The temple structure incorporates both laterite and sandstone materials, with tree roots growing through certain sections of its ancient walls.
