Banteay Chhmar Must-See

Commissioned by King Jayavarman VII in the late 12th century, Banteay Chhmar is one of Cambodia’s most significant yet remote Angkorian complexes. This collection highlights the primary temple—famed for its Bayon-style face towers and intricate Avalokiteshvara bas-reliefs—alongside its seven satellite shrines. These surrounding structures, such as the precarious towers of Banteay Torp and the jungle-clad ruins of Prasat Samnang Tasok, illustrate the massive scale and provincial architectural style of this ancient military and religious center.
