Prasat Chau Say Tevoda and Thommanon Temples - 12th Century Ruins - Angkor Thom Cambodia 2024
Prasat Chau Say Tevoda and Thommanon Temple are two small monuments located near each other in Angkor, Cambodia. They are similar in plan and style, and although their precise dates are unknown, they belong to the best period of classic art stylistically and represent two variations of a single theme of composition.
Chau Say Tevoda is a temple with a central shrine, mandapa, and main eastern gopura, which is almost identical to Thommanon Temple. However, Chau Say Tevoda has deteriorated more than Thommanon, which has been restored. Chau Say Tevoda is currently undergoing an extensive restoration project, allowing visitors to see the process up close.
Thommanon Temple is a single-towered temple with an east-facing central sanctuary, crowned by a prasat, or tower. It has well-preserved carvings and an aged sandstone exterior that provides a distinct contrast to the surrounding jungle. The architectural style of its tower is similar to Angkor Wat and Chau Say Tevoda.
Both temples are located near the Victory Gate of Angkor Thom and are often overlooked on a tour of the temples. However, they are worth visiting for their unique architectural features and decorative art, which represent the height of the ancient Khmer Empire.
Both temples are over shadowed by the larger temples in the area but are well worth a short visit. They are both very popular for the locals that come here to use as backdrops for wedding photos.
