Informations supplémentaires

Koh Ker is an Angkorian site 100 km northeast of Angkor itself. It was briefly the capital of the Khmer empire between 928 and 944 under king Jayavarman IV and his son Hasavarman II. After the Khmer empire had been established in the Angkor area (Roluos), Jayavarman IV moved the capital in 928 almost 100km northeast to Koh Ker. Here a vast number of temples were built under his reign, until his successor returned to the Angkor area about 20 years later. The Koh Ker site is dominated by Prasat Thom, a 30m tall temple mountain raising high above the plain and the surrounding forest.
