- Wat Banan Temple - Featuring architecture from the mid-11th century to the late 12th century, the temple was initially built by King Ut Tak Yea Tit Tya Varman II (1050-1066) and later completed by King Jarvarman VII (1181-1219). The temple is situated atop a mountain approximately 400 meters high in Kon Tey 2 commune, Ba Nan District, 25 kilometers from the provincial town along Provincial Road No. 155, which runs parallel to the Sang Ke River. At the mountain’s base, there are Ku Teuk and two main natural wells, Bit Meas and Chhung or Chhung Achey.
- Wat Ek Phnom - Wat Ek Phnom is an Angkorian temple located on the left side of the Sangkae River at the small creek of Prek Daun Taev, northwest of the G Peam Aek spot, about 9 km north of Battambang city in northwestern Cambodia. It is a Hindu temple built in the 11th century under the reign of King Suryavarman.
- Battambang Bat Caves - The killing caves of Phnom Sampeau are a Khmer Rouge execution site on Phnom Sampeau, a hill 7 miles southwest of Battambang in western Cambodia. The Khmer Rouge executed their victims at the top of the cave near a daylight shaft or ceiling hole, then disposed of the bodies by throwing them into the cave.
- Battambang Bat Caves - Just down the road from the Killing Caves of Phnom Sampeau, visitors gather at dusk to witness an extraordinary natural spectacle: the nightly departure of a massive colony of hungry wrinkle-lipped free-tailed bats.
Most spectators gather at the roadside bars and stalls, where food and drinks (and cover) are available. For a more personal experience, a local guide can lead you up a hidden path to the cave’s entrance.
