essential). Visit Phnom Da temple, a pre-Angkorian laterite tower
(6th century) and Asram Maharoseil (6th century), an Indian-style
sandstone temple constructed in a style unlike any other temple in

not very high. The path up to the temple is steep, over some big
rocks). Return to Takeo by boat and continue to Kep, formerly known
