Prasat Tor

Description

Prasat Tor is a small temple site in the landscape north of Banteay Samre.

This is the Tor monument north of Banteay Samre, not a different Prasat Top monument around Angkor.

How to Get There

Reach Siem Reap by intercity bus, minivan or car; the Phnom Penh road corridor follows National Road 6. Use a tuk-tuk or car for countryside outings.

For Prasat Tor, continue toward North of Banteay Samre. A car or motorbike covers the local road section; use the established approach for the final walk and keep a return vehicle for a countryside outing.

Admission

A reliable current ticket price for this site is not published in the reviewed sources. Keep transport and any parking or guide service separate from admission; voluntary religious donations are not the same as a published ticket.

Things to Do

Walk the permitted visitor route, look closely at the surviving architecture and allow time for the landscape around it. Keep a respectful distance from worshippers and do not climb fragile masonry.

What to Eat

Try rice noodles, amok or a rice-and-vegetable meal around the Old Market or Wat Bo. Carry water and a snack for temple or lake excursions.

Where to Stay

Stay around the Old Market, Wat Bo or central Siem Reap River for restaurants and onward transport. Angkor and the lake villages are separate excursions from the city.

Best Time to Visit

Morning or late afternoon is more comfortable for exposed courtyards and climbs. The cooler, drier months from November to February suit longer heritage walks.

Before You Go

Dress respectfully, remain on the permitted visitor route and avoid touching carvings or climbing restricted structures. Conservation work and religious observances can change access.
