Kutisvara
Cambodia
Kutisvara is an obscure Angkor ruin that is rather insignificant and will only interest hardcore Angkor enthusiasts. To find it, go along the road that connects Ta Prohm to Srah Srang. Coming from the direction of Ta Prohm, you will see Banteay Kdei's north wall on your right side. After you pass Banteay Kdei's north gopura, go for another 200 meters then stop. Now walk into the field to your left. Go in the northern direction. You will find Kutisvara somewhere in the vicinity, about 200 meters from the road.
Kutisvara was originally a brick temple with three towers. It is very old, being built around the earth 9th century to mid 10th century, making it as old as the ruins of the Roluos group and older than the bigger and more significant ruins within its immediate vicinity. The three now collapsed towers are arranged in a row from north to south. They all face east.
