Prasat Andet Temple

Prasat Andet means ‘floating temple’, and it rises up from a small hillock on the flood plains, which explains the name.

Consisting of a brick tower situated in a modern Buddhist temple in a village just off the highway, Prasat Andet is notable for the fact it’s some 1,400 years old.

This early seventh century, Jayavarman I tower doesn’t have the well preserved carvings of Prasat Phum Prasat and Tnoat Chum but is famous for a spectacular Harihara statue originally found here but now housed in Phnom Penh’s National Museum.
