Beng Mealea
Beng Mealea is a great sandstone temple east of Angkor, set beside the old royal road toward Preah Khan of Kampong Svay. Its galleries and enclosed courtyards follow a plan resembling Angkor Wat, and its style places it in the twelfth century, around the reign of Suryavarman II. The sanctuary was part of a wider landscape of roads, waterworks and settlements reaching beyond the Khmer capital.
