via Khmer Times, 05 October 2023: Phnom Krom Temple offers a unique blend of historical and natural beauty. Built in the late 9th and early 10th centuries, the temple is not just an ancient marvel but also a vantage point for breathtaking sunrises and sunsets over the Tonle Sap Lake.
Ra Dy, a Tourism Agent stationed at Phnom Krom, said that on the top of Phnom Krom, there is an ancient temple built in the late 9th and early 10th centuries. Phnom Krom Temple is a popular destination that can attract tourists because, besides the ancient temple on the mountain, tourists can also see the beautiful sunrise in the eastern part of the temple and the beautiful sunset view, accompanied by the breath-taking view of the Tonle Sap Lake behind the temple (west side), differs from the sunrise and sunset views of Angkor Wat and Phnom Bakheng temples without interfering with other tourists as well as watching the view of Siem Reap city from the distance and the surrounding rice fields.
