The south entrance to Kampong Cham Province's largest and best-known Angkorian site Prasat Wat Nokor Bachey, which is conveniently located close to the modern-day town centre.

The entrance gate lays in ruins and was originally constructed out of laterite along enclosure wall that surrounds the the main temple site. The tower to the gate is all but long gone, and only the gopura side walls remain standing on either side of the road.
