Sanctuary Ta Phrom

Ta Prohm at Takeo was built about 1200 by Angkor’s famous king Jayavarman VII. That Mahayana Buddhist period in Cambodia’s history of art is called Bayon style. Like Ta Prohm in Angkor, the Ta Prohm temple at Tonle Bati was a sanctuary for Hindu deities at the same time. It is located round 40 km south of Phnom Penh, and do not confuse with the same temple name in Siem Reap.
