Khao Pra Viharn, Cambodia

Khao Pra Vihan or Preah Vihear "sacred temple" on the Thai Cambodian border in the Dangrek mountains. 10th- 11th century.
Was claimed by both Cambodia and Thailand but was eventualy awareded to Cambodia by the world court. It can more easily be acessed through Thailand. It had been closed for a year when I went there in June 2003. De-mining was still in progres and explosions could be heard when mines were detonated.
