Mangalartha, Hindu temple ruins in Angkor Archaeological Park, Cambodia

The temple features a square foundation with a front porch on the eastern facade, while the other sides display solid walls decorated with false doors.

Constructed in 1295 during the reign of Jayavarman VIII, Mangalartha stands as the last precisely dated monument within the Angkor archaeological complex.

The temple pediments contain detailed carvings depicting Hindu deities, including Vishnu reclining on Shesha and Krishna lifting Mount Govardhana.

Located 300 meters before Victory Gate along a narrow dirt track, visitors need to navigate through vegetation to reach this archaeological site.

Two Sanskrit inscriptions on the doorjamb and stele, containing 73 lines combined, document the dedication to a Brahman scholar named Jayamangalartha.
