Pre Rup is a 10th century Hindu temple built by King Rajendravarman.

 Pre Rup is a 10th century Hindu temple built by King Rajendravarman. The temple mountain is underrated and not as widely visited as other temples in the area. However, the beautiful brick structure is a must-see for anyone visiting region.

The name Pre Rup translates into English as “turn the body” and it’s believed that funerals took place here. In fact, it’s thought that the whole building was a giant ancient crematorium. In traditional funerals, the body was rotated at various points through the service, hence the name.

Nowadays, you should take the time to explore the temple as it is in excellent condition and you can explore in relative peace and quiet when compared to other more popular temples.
