Site Size & Condition: Wat Wat Samraong Borei (វត្ត​សំរោង​បូរី - Pronounced: Woit Somh-rouhng Boar-raye)

Large, active Buddhist complex reported to house the inscribed fragment K.778 recovered from nearby Tuol Prei Preah Theat. (A lintel found at said site may also possibly be housed in this monastery?) Indicators are that this monastery is itself constructed on an ancient site as the monastery has the classic slightly north of east-west orientation and several sandstone and laterite fragments can be seen in the compound. A sandstone naga statue of indeterminate age can also be seen in the vihara garden.
