via Khmer Times, 26 April 2022: Two historical Buddhist dormitories in Siem Reap to be restored.

The APSARA National Authority’s technicians are working to restore two wooden dormitories in Preah Prohm Rath Pagoda, a traditional Buddhist temple located in Mondul 1 village, Svay Dangkum commune, Siem Reap provincial city.

According to the APSARA National Authority, the two wooden dormitories have two different architectural designs (the Khmer or Koeung housing design and the Peth housing design). The two structures were built in two different phases. The Khmer or Koeung was built during the 1940s and the Peth was built during the 1950s (according to Venerable Pin Sem, Chief Monk of Wat Reach Bo).
