    The platform of the elephant is the platform of the king's parade, facing the road to the gate of victory, and the soldiers who returned triumphantly from the gate of victory are here to receive the king's review. There are many exquisite sculptures on the outer wall, which are worth enjoying.

    At certain times of the year, the Terrace of the Elephants is lit up at night and they do cultural performances or festivals here. Looks stunning at that time.

    There is a stone platform 350 meters long and 3 meters high in Tongwang City (also known as Great Angkor Wat) of Cambodia. In ancient times, this was the place where the king chose to ride war elephants. The war elephants have to fight before the winner can become the king's mount. The whole stone platform is carved with exquisite elephants, and there are three parallel stone carvings at the southern stage.

    Observation platform Terrace of the Elephant (four stars, less than half an hour): Where the celebration ceremony is held, the king's reading platform, and the grand elephant fighting conference is held every year. The observation deck (also known as the war elephant steps) is next to the king's steps, the whole step looks like a huge review platform, you can imagine the king standing on the review platform to review the pomp of soldiers and war elephants during the heyday of the Angkor Dynasty, And of course there is the ferocity and bloodiness of the battle between the elephants.
