Ta Prohm Kel

End of 12th century Jayavarman VII Buddhist. A lone sandstone tower within a single ruined laterite enclosure. The stele discovered at Ta Prohm in 1928 gives details of 102 hospitals established by Jayavarman VII. This building is probably the chapel of one of these. One stands outside each of the cardinal gates to Angkor Thom. More at ‘The Angkor Survey‘.
