Site Size & Condition: Small Prasat Prasat Sen Thmol (ប្រាសាទសែនត្មុល - Pronounced: Pra-saht Saen T'mol)

Prasat Sen Thmol is situated at the foot of the eastern staircase leading from the summit of Phnom Chisor and as such forms the main temple's 2nd gopura. It's smaller than the outer gopura, Sen Rovieng, but is also in reasonable condition though it can get rather overgrown without regular maintenance. The east door of the south wing has a generic heraldic lintel featuring a deity - probably Vishvakarma - in good condition. The laterite staircase lies immediately east of the gopura while an entrance path leads west to Prasat Sen Roveang.
