Preah Ko Temple, Siem Reap, Cambodia GoPro 1080p

Preah Ko (also known as The Sacred Bull) was the first temple built in the ancient and now defunct city of Hariharalaya (in the area that today is called Roluos), some 15 kilometres south-east of the leading group of temples at Angkor, Cambodia. The temple was built under the Khmer King Indravarman I in 879 to honour the king's family members, whom it places in relation with the Hindu deity Shiva. The Preah Ko is surrounded by a moat measuring over 500 meters on each side and three enclosures. Nothing remains of the third enclosure except for the East cruciform gopura, which was the main entrance to the temple. A brick wall surrounds the first enclosure. At the centre of the east and west wall centre is a gopura entrance building with colonettes in the windows. Lintels over the entrance gate are adorned with sculptings of Hindu Gods like Vishnu. Six sanctuary towers in two rows of three stand on a square platform. In front of the platform facing the towers are three statues of the bull Nandi, the mount of Shiva. Three stairways, each guarded by a pair of lions, give access to the platform and the sanctuaries. The towers were covered in stucco in which very detailed sculpting was made, some of which are still intact today; Siem Reap, Cambodia 2020. Shots were taken with GoPro Hero 7 Black 2.7K downsized to 1080p HD.
