Site Size & Condition: Medium Tuol Tuol Sbov Ambaeng (ទួលស្បូវអំបែង - Pronounced: Toohl S'beu Am-beng)

Medium-sized raise earth area showing numerous brick, laterite and sandstone fragments. Traces of a reservoir lie to the north. The mound has been cleared of undergrowth, leaving tree cover and a roofed sala or shelter constructed to house a collection of exhibits presumably found either on site or in the vicinity. This includes several pedestals and sema stones, a linga plinth, a fragment of lintel and numerous fragments of sandstone statues including a large face. (The remainder of the head is missing.)

It's a great pity more minor sites aren't taken care of and presented in a similar way. A commendable initiative.
