This one is on an island but now there is no water around. When I was there the main was under construction. A bit disappointed. There is a recent temple （Thailand style maybe）nearby.

It is only a construction site right now. Only one Stupa which is under one big scaffold.

Ruins of an island-temple built in the middle of a now dry baray, Indratataka, the first large-scale baray constructed by a Khmer king. Lolei consists of four brick towers on a double laterite platform. It was the last major temple built at Roluos before Yasovarman I moved the capital to the Angkor area. Though the towers are in poor condition, there are some lintel carvings in very good condition displaying the distinctively detailed Preah Ko style. An active pagoda has been built amongst the ruins. Of the Roluos Group ruins, allocate the least time Lolei. See ‘Roluos Group’ and ‘Barays’.

There is not much that is left of this temple other than the cluster of four very rundown towers, however the temple wall is still visible and you can imagine how big it is long ago. The temple compound is now occupied by Buddhist monastery running various programme, including school. This is an active community so there are people who actually live and work there.

The interesting thing here is not the temple, but rather, the school and the story behind it. It is humbling to see how much obstacles these kids have to go through in order to live with dignity and to receive education. Donation encouraged. Check out their community library and talk to Sok who works there as the English teacher. He himself was educated in the school.

One of the oldest temples. Made mostly of brick instead of stone. As of December 2015, it's under renovation
