Neang Khmao temple
The ruins of the 10th century Brahmin Neang Khmao temple lie between Phnom Penh and Takeo city, making them an easy day trip from either location. With its brick and sandstone construction, it was built in the Koh Ker style. A fire at some point in the temples history blackened the outer façade, and subsequently it has been known as the Black Lady.
