Beng Mealea
Beng Mealea Temple, known as the Temple of Lotus Pond, is a significant structure from the Angkor Wat period, situated approximately 77 km from Siem Reap by road. Constructed in the early 12th century under the reign of King Suriyavaraman II, this temple was originally built as a Hindu place of worship dedicated to the deity Vishnu. In a notable recognition of its cultural importance, Beng Mealea Temple was added to the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List on March 27, 2020.

Kor Ker Temple
Koh Ker is a significant yet remote archaeological site located in northern Cambodia, approximately 120 kilometers from Siem Reap and the renowned Angkor complex. This area, characterized by dense jungle and low population density, encompasses over 180 sanctuaries within a protected region spanning 81 square kilometers. However, only around two dozen of these monuments are accessible to tourists, as many of the sanctuaries remain concealed within the forest.
The name “Koh Ker” is the contemporary designation for a notable city from the Khmer Empire period. Historical inscriptions refer to this city as Lingapura (meaning "city of lingams"), Chok Gargyar ("city of glance"), or as the "iron tree forest."
Below are the temples that can be observed in Lingapura.
