What travelers say:
Not far from him is Bayan Temple, Bafang Temple and War Elephant Platform. Compared with the lively opposite, this place is really unreachable. It's just a small road. This place was not arranged in the original itinerary. But it happened to be sitting and drinking at the stall next to it. The driver recommended that there is a temple to see here, although it basically collapsed. It is almost impossible to see the original appearance. And there is no meaning to repair it.

Temple U, under construction but don’t missThe temple "U" is similar to "T", but smaller and simpler. Its enclosure is 35 by 28 meters. It has no gopura. The lintel of west door shows the Trimurti, with Shiva dancing on a kala-head between Vishnu and Brahma. On the northern lintel there is another depiction of the "Churning of the Sea of Milk". When I visited this temple, the work of protection and repair of the ruins was in progress. But fortunately, all the wonderful lintel reliefs are placed at the northeast corner in an orderly manner, so that the visitors can be appreciated and photographed at close range. * Preah Pithu is a group of five temples (T, U, V, Y and X) at Angkor, Cambodia. In fact they were in all probability not designed as a group. Despite their ruined state, the remains have good decorative carving. #2023travelwish #awesomepic #mytripvlog #travel #historical #templeTimentoDiver25

Temple X, the Buddhist templePreah Pithu is a group of five temples (T, U, V, Y and X) at Angkor, Cambodia. "X" is a Buddhist temple, it remained unfinished and is probably the latest. The others are Hindu. Temple "X" stands on a large terrace, 4 meters high, about 100 meters east of temple "U". It is straight reachable from there if the moat is dry. It is similar in design to the former temples but is larger and incomplete in its decorations. "X" is a buddhist temple: on the walls of the sanctuary chamber there is a double row of sculpted Buddhas. #historical #temple #mytripvlog #travel #2023travelwish #awesomepic #buddhismTimentoDiver27

Temple Y, the half-pedimentPreah Pithu is a group of five temples (T, U, V, Y and X) at Angkor, Cambodia. In fact they were in all probability not designed as a group. Despite their ruined state, the remains have good decorative carving. Temple "Y" has no basement or stairways and stands on an earthen platform, north of "V". The larger chamber has mostly collapsed, but on its western side there are two remarkable half-pediments, which depict the defeat of the asura Bana by Krishna to the north and the three giant steps of Vamana to the south. #travel #2023travelwish #mytripvlog #historical #templeTimentoDiver22

Preah Pitu TPreah Pithu is a group of five temples (T, U, V, Y and X) at Angkor, Cambodia. In fact they were in all probability not designed as a group. Despite their ruined state, the remains have good decorative carving. The temple "T" has a sandstone enclosure, which measures 45 by 40 meters, and has two gopuras on the main W-E axis. The sanctuary, on a 3-levels ornated platform 6 meters high, has a chamber which sheltered a large linga on its pedestal. The fragments of the lintel of western door, on the ground, show a stylized depiction of the "Churning of the Sea of Milk", while the walls are decorated with devatas and floral motifs, Bayon style. #angkorthom #travel #2023travelwish #mytripvlog #historical #templeTimentoDiver21

Preah Pitu V, the 1.5m tall LingaPreah Pithu is a group of five temples (T, U, V, Y and X) at Angkor, Cambodia. In fact they were in all probability not designed as a group. Despite their ruined state, the remains have good decorative carving. Outside the residual moat, north of temple "U", there is temple "V". It is oriented to the East, where it opens with a double vestibule, and has no enclosure. On the West it has a causeway which ends with a 40 meter long cruciform terrace, leading into NE corner of the Royal Square. Its sanctuary chamber, standing on two-tier sculpted basement, is the largest of the group, having a square side of 3.80 m, and hosting a large 1.5 m linga. The linga divided into three segments measuring exactly 50cm each. Its circular upper part symbolizes the supreme form of Shiva, while the lower octagonal and square sections are representation of, respectively, Vishnu and Brahma. #historical #temple #mytripvlog #2023travelwish #travelTimentoDiver

The temple is among the friends of the wall, consisting of Hinduism and Buddhism. Some temples are about to collapse, some tops have collapsed halfway, the temple has a statue base and many tall trees, some have been cut down.
There was a statue in front of the temple, there were many tall trees, some had been cut down, a section of wood was placed on the ground, there was a very thick stump on the ground, can imagine how tall at the time.
Friends who like history and culture can come and see
This temple is already dilapidated, and I don’t know why there is no organization to repair it. It looks like a very good historical monument.
