Building date: Late 12th century
Religion: Mahayana Buddhism
Style: Bayon
King: Jayavarman VII From 1181 To 1218
Location: On the large circuit, in the north of the baray Eastern.
A small, classic Bayon-style monastic complex composed of a relatively flat enclosure, with face tower gopuras and cruciform inside sanctuaries similar to a small version of Ta Prohm. Most of the carvings are in good state and exhibit notably great execution for late 12th century works. Observe the devata carvings that display an unusual personality. A big tree grows in the top of the eastern gopura. It's overgrowing the door, however it makes a classic photo. Greatest photographed in the afternoon. Ta Som is one of remote temples in the Grand Circuit.
A Buddhist temple devoted to the memory of the Kings's ancestors, the Ta Som temple is particularly recognized by its towers with faces and is partly occupied by the jungle. On the western side, the small tower entrance that has the human face (it's on the peripheral wall) allows visitors entrance from the inside perimeter wall.
Passing further through the first corridor, in the center is a central hall. It's the ruins which the environment is great and very cosy. Furthermore, if you stroll via the woodland to the east, there's an eastern tower entrance of the peripheral walls. The wood slag is attached onto the eastern tower entrance. Around is the forest and the atmosphere feeling is nice. The sunbeam is clean on days when climate is good.
