The Terrace of the Elephants

The Terrace of the Elephants is located directly in front of the east gopura of the Royal Palace rampart. The terrace was built in the late 12th century by King Jayavarman VII. There, tourists can enjoy seeing the facade decorated with elephants and their riders depicted are using their trunks to hunt and fight while tigers claw at them.
