Wat Preah Vihear Suor (វត្តវិហារសួគ៌ - Pronounced: Woit P'rah Vik-here Su'or) the remains of an old brick stupa that is now in ruins, sheltered by a modern cement shrine and what appears to be a brick temple mound with a standing sandstone door frame. Under a tree one can find a small collection of fragmented sandstone. An elongated schist block also had some inscriptions on it, though the whereabouts of this piece is currently unknown, along with early reports of a lintel, a fragment of a lintel, sandstone pedestals and the bottom fragment of a seated Buddha on a naga's tail. One may find a small single sandstone carved stupa gilded in gold paint in one of the shrines in the temple compound. Further investigation is required to determine if the previously mentioned carvings and pieces still remain in situ or not.
