The long-term relationship of the times, I can't see the zodiac represented by each 㙮, anyway, it is the ancient time to lock the prisoner in the tower, three days later can still survive as innocent, strange method. I found the twelve portraits quite fascinating, walking around them, and picnicking by the lake behind them. They may not be as grand as other complexes, located on the other side of the Great Angkor Road. They are almost overlooked, but I love the landscape and symmetry of the twelve portraits.

    Twelve Pagodas (Prasat Suor Prat), also known as the Twelve Pagodas, are a series of temples across the Royal Square from north to south, with a total of 12, extending from the Victory Gate and arranged symmetrically. According to records, these towers are used to solve disputes between people. The towers were hidden in the jungle and were very conspicuous in the golden sun.

    Opposite Lai Wangtai and the war elephant platform is the Twelve Zodiac Tower, which is very weathered. The reason why it is called the Twelve Zodiac Tower is because there are different animals carved on the tower, similar to the Chinese Twelve Zodiac Tower.

    The buildings were scattered across the Elephant Terrace, and it was not known what the buildings were for when they were visited. It was later known that they represented the zodiac. The biggest feature of these buildings is that the appearance is red, although scattered, but there seems to be a rule layout opposite the Royal Palace. However, most of them are badly damaged, and it is difficult to find the glory of the year.

    This row of towers opposite the Terrace of Elephants adds a nice atmosphere to the clearing. On their own they are a little run down, but worth a quick stop to check them out.

    The twelve zodiac pagoda is on the open lawn opposite Barong Temple. Although it is called the Twelve Zodiac Pagoda, it has nothing to do with the twelve zodiac signs we are familiar with. It used to be a place where prisoners were detained. In fact, it was an ancient prison. It just happened to have twelve towers, so it was named the Twelve Zodiac Pagodas.

    The twelve zodiac towers are arranged north and South on the east side of the old Royal Square, facing the elephant platform of the palace and the king's platform. Symmetrical arrangement. The role of the Twelve Towers is unknown. According to the description in "Zhenla Fengdu Ji" written by Zhou Daguan in the Yuan Dynasty of China, the role of the tower seems to be to mediate and adjudicate some disputes among the local people. The place where the controversial people are detained is called "Heaven Prison". We are here for a short stay. Also, the Tomb Raider used to view it here. -

    Three-day tickets to Angkor Wat were purchased, and the Twelve Zodiac Towers could be visited with the King's City and the elephant steps. If you don't invite your company, you must make a full strategy, otherwise you will feel a little tired after the first day of sightseeing.
