Wat Athvear Temple

(best seen in original size)

Wat Althea, also called Prasat Vat Althea, is a 12th-century Hindu temple at Angkor,
Cambodia with an active Buddhist temple and cemetery
adjacent to the walled ancient structure. It is 6 km south of Siem Reap,
just west of the road leading to the Tonle Sap, on the right bank of the Siem Reap River.
Prasat Wat Athvea has the double name of Wat and Prasat
because next to the old Vishnuite temple is built a modern Buddhist pagoda.
