  Trio of small brick towers on a platform with two surviving lintels in pretty good condition. Bat Chum is a historically unique early Buddhist temple constructed at a time when Hinduism dominated. The inscriptions on the doorways note the Buddhist dedication, praise the architect (who was also the architect for East Mebon and Pre Rup,) and admonishes local elephant handlers to keep their beasts off the dikes, like an ancient 'keep off the grass' sign.

  Smaller temples usually are less crowded, but they help you to understand the importance of the area, and how the time was playing a unique role developing this huge city of temples.

  Small hidden temple on a small road a bit off small circuit. Pay short visit if you have time.
