Site Size & Condition: Ancient Bridge Spean Lou (ស្ពានលូ - Pronounced: Spien Loo) one of the many historic bridges built by King Jayavarman VII that spans the Royal roads leading out from Angkor to the far stretches of the empire. The bridge is no longer visible besides a few laterite blocks that lay within the area, a new bridge that has two large concrete pipes allowing water to flow has been built. The name of the bridge is based on those sewage pipes.
