  Same pyramid shape as the other gates, with the same 3 parts on top. Here you can climb up and enjoy a great view. More quiet than at South Gate also a bit less restored and spectacular.This gate gave direct access to the Royal Palace.

  Very similar to the other two gates in design, to the casual visitor, it is difficult to tell which gate is which. Anyway they are all beautiful, sadly the statues along the bridge are mostly damaged.

  Cambodia - Angkor temples overview
  
  Victory Gate in Cambodia is not in itself one of the Angkor temples, but one of the gates into the ancient town of Angkor Thom. Of 5 separate gates, this is the 2nd most visited, but many consider it to be the most interesting. The gate can be reached at the end of the Royal Road that extends from the compound of the Royal Palace of Angkor Thom, near to the Terrace of Elephants, past the Prasat Suor Prat towers, and then eastwards toward Chau Say Tevoda. Victory Gate Highlights include the marvellous carved heads (Gopuras) leading up Victory Way to the gate, and then the similar carved faces which make up the head of the gate, which are representations of both Gods and Demons, facing in the four cardinal directions. Three headed Eyrawana elephants are located on the inner corner of the gate, having been well restored. Although not of the same size and stature, the heads are nevertheless worthy of comparison with nearby Bayon in Angkor.
