Prasat Beng Mealea Spean Khang Kaeut (ប្រាសាទបេងមាលាស្ពានខាងកើត - Pronounced: Pra-saht Beung Ma'lier S'pien Karng Kaeult)
The east entrance causeway or 'bridge' that leads into Prasat Beng Mealea. About 450m along the same orientation is the west edge of Baray Prasat Beng Mealea.
The ancient causeway appears to be constructed out of sandstone, and there looks to be some traces of a naga balustrade still in situ.
Upon crossing the moat heading into the main temple enclosure, there appears to be a possible sandstone foundations of a gopura entrance, that we have listed as Prasat Beng Mealea Khloung Thvear Khang Kaeut.
