Ta Som Temple - Constructed in the 12th Century - Siem Reap Cambodia
Ta Som is a small temple located at the eastern end of the Northern Baray at Angkor, Cambodia. It was built at the end of the 12th century for King Jayavarman VII and is located north-east of Angkor Thom and just east of Neak Pean.
The temple was likely dedicated to Jayavarman VII's father, Dharanindravarman II (Paramanishkalapada), who was King of the Khmer Empire from 1150 to 1160. Little is known about the temple's history and purpose, but some speculate that it may have been dedicated to one of Jayavarman VII's teachers.
Ta Som is the farthest temple within the forest-covered Angkor Park and is situated close to the northeastern corner of the Grand Circuit or Grand Tour.
The temple is small compared to most in the historical park. The highlights of the temple the stone carvings, the natural setting and the faces carved into the stones above each of the outer gates. It’s worth a short visit if you are doing the outer loop and visiting all of the temples there.
