Ta Keo

11th century Jayavarman V Suryavarman I Hindu (Shiva). An imposing five tier temple mountain built predominantly in sandstone and surrounded by a moat. Perhaps central to the next capital. The clear constructional intention is all the more visible since the decoration was never completed. Inscriptions on door frames of the eastern gopuras relate to dedications made in 1007.
