It seems that this temple and another temple are symmetrical, and the other is called Dongmei Ben Temple! The itinerary of the big circle and the outer circle looks really a bit aesthetic fatigue every day, it is similar.
In fact, I saw that it was a bit mysterious and tired, and there were some monuments everywhere red bricks that were weathered, but it was different to give people a special feeling, because its carving was different from other.
This temple is a little far from the main scenic spots, and after coming here, it is relatively isolated, close to the river, it feels like there is no loss if you don't come here, everyone look at your time.
I think this temple is a bit far worse than other attractions in Angkor. First, it is very irregular here. There are various things to sell along the way. Second, the temple itself has nothing to look at.
Simei Ben is a temple, personally prefer here, because he is near Xichi, but because the government lacks this knowledge, does not manage him too much, looks very shabby, damage is more serious.
