Prasat Hin Phanom Wan

The main prang facing east was built of sandstone and was connected to the mandapa by a square path of 25.5 m length and 10.20 m width. The Prasat is surrounded by laterite wall and has entrances from four directions. Outside the walls are four ponds. The temple houses a number of Buddha images, lingams (phallus sculptures) and a Shiva's bull mount Nandi. A Buddha's footprint is located in the building south of the main prang within the sanctuary's inner walls. To the southwest is a building of red sandstone called "Prang Noi." Inside is a large stone Buddha image. A roofed sandstone walkway and a laterite wall go around the sanctuary. A Gopura (a sanctuary doorway or porch) in the form of a tall tower is situated in all 4 directions. Around 230 metres east of the sanctuary are traces of a moat and an earth hill that was the site of another Khmer building called "Noen Oraphim." [Source: TAT]
