Preah Pithou

Preah Pithou is a group of five small temples located in the northeast of the terrace of the leper king. All temples are Brahman places of worship, built by king Suryavarman II (1113-1150) in the 12th century, except for one. This one Buddhist temple was built between the 13th and 16th centuries and has many Buddha related bas-reliefs inside.

Many of the structures are in poor condition but some richly decorated pediments still remain.
