Preah Ko Temple

Preah Ko (Sacred Bull) was built in 879AD by the Khmer King Indravarman I. This was the first Khmer temple I visited in Cambodia. It is part of the Roulous group a few miles from the main group at Angkor. It's named after the three sandstone bulls in front of the temple who represent Nandi, Shiva's mount.
In the final image, Nandi is being ridden by one of the hundreds of child beggars who ply the temples.
