The terrace of the Leper King is located in the northwest corner of Angkor Thom.
Built at the end of the 12th century by King Jayavarman VII, its modern name
derives from a Khmer sculpture named the Leper King discovered at the site.
The terrace is enclosed by double walls. Both the exterior and interior are
decorated with dramatic bass-reliefs. Though not as fine as those of Banteay Srei,
they are deeply carved into stone, more like statues than just reliefs.
Some of the carvings on the inner wall are left intact.
Various fabulous figures were shown, such as gods, giants, women with bare torsos, etc.
