Preah Vihear Temple is an ancient Hindu temple built by the Khmer Empire, located on top of a 525-metre cliff in the Dângrêk Mountains, in the Preah Vihear province of Cambodia.
As a key edifice of the empire's spiritual life, Preah Vihear Temple was supported and modified by successive kings and thus bears elements of several architectural styles. It is unusual among Khmer temples in being constructed along a long north–south axis, rather than having the conventional rectangular plan with orientation toward the east. The temple gives its name to Cambodia's Preah Vihear province in which it is now located, as well as the Khao Phra Wihan National Park, which borders it in Thailand's Sisaket Province, though it is no longer accessible from Thailand. In 1962, after a lengthy dispute between Cambodia and Thailand over ownership, the International Court of Justice in the Hague ruled that the temple is in Cambodia. On 7 July, 2008, Preah Vihear was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
