Chau Say Tevoda
ប្រាសាទចៅសាយទេវតា (Prasat Chau Say Tevoda)
A small 12th-century Hindu temple facing Thommanon, restored by a Chinese aid team. It is a stop on the small circuit.
Chau Say Tevoda was built in the first half of the 12th century. It is similar in age and style to Thommanon opposite, and is dedicated to Shiva and Vishnu. The temple had collapsed badly, and it was restored from 2000 to 2009 by the Chinese Government Team for Safeguarding Angkor. This was China's first project in Angkor conservation, and the site still shows where new and old stones have been joined. Highlights are the gable reliefs on the gateway and an elevated walkway leading to the Siem Reap River. The temple lies on the south side of the road outside the Victory Gate. The Angkor Pass is valid for entry. Together with Thommanon, a visit takes about half an hour.
