Prasat Chan Ta Uon (GPS: 13.46032, 103.8414) is one of the lesser-known temple ruins of Angkor. This temple is located to the northwest of the moat of Angkor Thom. It used to have a moat of its own which has since largely dried up. As with many other Angkor monuments, it also has a laterite wall punctuated by gates on the east-west axis. Being once a Hindu temple during Angkorian times, Prasat Chan Ta Uon has a outer porch or mandapa facing east.
Prasat Chan Ta Uon, also spelled Prasat Chan Ta Oun, is also often called Prasat Prei Prasat, a rather awkward name that causes confusion with the other Prasat Prei. The Angkor pass is not required for visiting this Angkor ruin.

About this website
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
