Preah Khan

Neak Pean
After that, you will continue to Neak Pean, nearby Preah Khan and this is an artificial island and a Buddhist temple. The temple was also constructed by King Jayavarman VII in the centre of the Preah Khan Baray (Jayatataka).

Banteay Srei
Banteay Srei Temple: The Jewel of Khmer Artistry
Tucked away in the Cambodian countryside about 25 kilometers northeast of the Angkor Archaeological Park, Banteay Srei Temple may be smaller in size than its famous neighbor Angkor Wat — but what it lacks in scale, it more than makes up for in beauty, detail, and enchantment.
Often called the "Jewel of Khmer Art", Banteay Srei is one of the most beloved and distinctive temples in all of Cambodia. So what makes it the main attraction for travelers seeking something truly special?Unique Hindu Mythology and Symbolism
Unlike many other Angkor temples that blend Buddhist and Hindu elements, Banteay Srei is a pure Hindu temple, dedicated to Shiva, one of the principal deities of Hinduism.
Highlights include:
A stunning depiction of Ravana shaking Mount Kailash, home of Shiva
Elegant images of Indra, the rain god, on his three-headed elephant Airavata
Symbolic guardian statues of lions and monkeys flanking doorways
