Bakong Temple is located about 13 kilometers east of Siem Reap city. It is a large-scale and important temple in the Rollos group. It is also the national temple before the Khmer Kingdom moved its capital to Angkor Thong. It is used to worship Shiva and Linga. Once in ruins, it was roughly restored to its original appearance, with a five-story pagoda in the center of the top floor of the five-story square pyramid platform. Bakong Temple is far away from the urban area of Siem Reap and belongs to the "outer circle" tour route of Angkor Wat. Many people choose to come here in the evening, because the scenery of the vicissitudes of the temple and the green trees and flowers is particularly fascinating when the sun goes down. The temple is surrounded by three concentric walls and a moat, but the pagoda on the temple hill can be seen from a distance. A long walk leads to the east entrance, to the north is a newly built Buddhist monastery, in stark contrast to the ruined remains of Bakong. Many monks will pass scriptures here, and plant a lot of herbs and trees around. Walking into the Bakong Temple, there are many rocks and weeds on the grand square in front of the temple. You can find the remaining statues of Linga and Shiva, but they have changed beyond recognition. In addition to the main body of Miaoshan, there are many satellite temple towers made of bricks, most of which are also incomplete. Close to the main body of Temple Mountain, looking up at the towering pagoda at the top, it is very majestic. Entering from the stone gate at the bottom, you can climb the stairs to the five-level platform. These five levels represent the world of Naga, Garuda, Yaksha, Rakshasa and God. Stone lions can be seen on both sides of the stairs, but some have no heads, showing vicissitudes. The four corners of the platform are erected with stone statues of idols, but unfortunately they are not complete, and even the nose is missing. On the fourth platform are the low towers surrounding the central pagoda, and some parts still retain the original plaster relief. When you come to the central pagoda on the top floor, you can appreciate the immortal relief on the pagoda. Although it is seriously damaged and the repair marks are obvious, you can still feel the exquisite carving craftsmanship at that time. Standing on the top of the temple mountain overlooking the entire temple, you can understand its general layout.
