Site Size & Condition: Small Ruin Wat Po Meanbon (វត្តពោធិ៍មានបុណ្យ - Pronounced: What Po Mee-an-bon)

Active Buddhist monastery featuring a rectangular laterite structure which presumably served as the base of an ancient sandstone tower. Various sandstone blocks and fragments can be seen around the temple complex including at least 3 lion statues. A man-made pond is also still in use while the modern vihara itself could well be constructed over the top of another, larger, laterite terrace.
