 Picturesque
baray opposite Banteay Kdei. Originally constructed by the same
architect that built Pre Rup. Remodeled in the 12th century as part of
Jayavarman VII's massive building campaign. A multi-tiered landing
platform on the west edge of the baray is adorned with naga balustrades
and guardian lions. The very sparse remains of an island temple can be
seen poking from the middle of the lake during the dry season when the
water is low. Srah Srang offers a pleasant, less touristed sunrise
alternative to Angkor Wat. |
