Ta Nei

Ta Nei temple features stone walls, galleries, and gopuras arranged in a rectangular layout with detailed carvings across its surfaces.

Built during the reign of King Jayavarman VII in the late 12th century, Ta Nei temple demonstrates the architectural evolution of the Khmer Empire.

The temple incorporates Buddhist motifs and religious elements throughout its structure, reflecting the spiritual practices of the Khmer civilization.

Visitors can reach Ta Nei through a 15-minute forest walk from the main road, as vehicles cannot access the immediate temple grounds.

The temple maintains its original structural elements without modern restoration, allowing natural forest growth to intertwine with ancient stonework.
