Banteay Kdei, The Citadel of the Cell, Cambodia

Banteay Kdei , The Citadel of the Cell  
         
Another temple at Angkor that should not be missed.   It is located southeast of Ta Prohm and east of Angkor Thom, Siem Reap, Cambodia.  Unlike Ta Phrom with overgrown trees identity and similar architecture with Banteay Kdei,   this citadel complex is dilapidated due to the faulty construction and poor sandstone.
