Evidence (2024-09-30): Preah Vihear Temple (Khmer: ប្រាសាទព្រះវិហារ Prasat Preah Vihear; Thai: ปราสาทพระวิหาร; RTGS: Prasat Phra Wihan) is an ancient Hindu temple built by the Khmer Empire, located on top of a 525-metre (1,722 ft) cliff in the Dângrêk Mountains, in the Preah Vihear province of Cambodia. As a key edifice of the empire's spiritual life, Preah Vihear Temple was supported and modified by successive kings and thus bears elements of several architectural styles. It is unusual among Khmer temples in being constructed along a long north–south axis, rather than having the conventional rectangular plan with orientation toward the east. The temple gives its name to Cambodia's Preah Vihear province in which it is now located, as well as the Khao Phra Wihan National Park, which borders it in Thailand's Sisaket Province, though it is no longer accessible from Thailand. In 1962, after a lengthy dispute between Cambodia and Thailand over ownership, the International Court of Justice in the Hague ruled that the temple is in Cambodia.[1] On 7 July, 2008, Preah Vihear was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.[2][3] [...] Gallery [edit]See also [edit]- List of World Heritage Sites in Cambodia - Cambodian–Thai border stand-off - Khao Phra Wihan National Park

Evidence (2024-01-01): Khao Phra Wihan ('Preah Vihear' in Khmer) is a large Khmer temple ruin perched dramatically on a cliff 500m above the plains below. It's just over the border in Cambodian territory and currently not accessible from the Thai side due to a border dispute. All that is open to visitors now are scenic overlooks and some minor Khmer ruins, all of which are interesting, but not really worth the 400B admission fee. Khao Phra Wihan National Park

Evidence (2021-02-25): Named after the magnificent 11th century Khmer sanctuary known to Cambodians as Preah Vihear, Thailand’s Khao Phra Wihan National Park covers a forested escarpment with soaring views into remote Northern Cambodia. At the time of writing, the ruins remain off limits from the Thai side, but you can get enticingly close. Built in dramatic fashion to honour the Hindu god Shiva some 1,100 years ago, Prasat Khao Phra Wihan (also spelt Viharn; we’re using the Thai name for this listing) is situated at the crest of a rugged 500-metre-high slope amid the Dandrek mountains. A half-kilometre west of the Cambodian-controlled ruins, Pha Mo E Daeng cliff is part of Thailand. [...] Khao Phra Wihan National Park is located at the southern end of Highway 221 in Si Saket province, Northeast Thailand. There is no public transport to the park. From Si Saket town or Ubon Ratchathani, you could catch an hourly local bus to Kantharalak, which is the nearest city at over 30 km north of headquarters. In Kantharalak it’s possible to arrange a motorbike taxi or perhaps a tuk tuk or car to the park, though this could be challenging as English is not widely spoken here.

Evidence (2011-02-13): The fact is: Prasat Phra Wihan is Cambodian culture and its soul, every body has to respect this. The entrance to the temple is also Cambodian territory (this often is wrongly written in papers), the small river in front of the entrance is the border Thailand/Cambodia. This is the conviction of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague from 1962. Thailand never reclaimed this decision before. Best and peaceful solution would be like Thailand makes the business by hospitality and accommodation of tourists and visitors and Cambodia make the business by charging the entrance fees - and every body lives in peace. [...] Khao Phra Wihan at Muang Boran is an artificial hill with 54 meters high, 66 meters wide and 250 meters of hill slope. 684 pillars have been used to shore up the hill, 2,400 truckloads of rockfill were used to create the lofty hill. 40 rai of land mass was dug up for topsoil to cover the hill slope. The artificial hill of Preah Vihear is about one-tenth of its original size while the prasat is smaller than its original size by half. On the top of Khao Phra Wihan provides an excellent scenary of Muang Boran.

Evidence (2023-12-25): Though at the edge of a cliff whose top mostly belongs to present-day Thailand, and for some years occupied by that country, the temple was nonetheless claimed by Cambodia on the basis of a map prepared during French colonial times. In 1959 Cambodia brought the dispute to the International Court of Justice, which in 1962 ruled that, because Thailand had for years accepted this map, Cambodia had sovereignty over Preah Vihear. Soon afterwards Cambodia was plunged into civil war. The temple remained open to the public from Thailand (although unreachable from Cambodia) until 1975, when it was occupied by the Khmer Rouge, whose rusting artillery guns still litter the area. It was re-opened from the Thai side in 1998, and in 2003 Cambodia completed the construction of a long-awaited access road allowing Cambodians to visit the temple. In 2008, after a contentious nomination process, the temple was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Evidence (2020-02-06): Prasat phra Wihan (Preah Vihear) stands on the summit of Phra Wihan Hill, on the south face of the Phanom Dong Rak Range escarpment on the Thai-Cambodian border, Si Sa Ket Province. This stone sanctuary was built in the reign of King Suryavarman I around 1038 A.D. [...] In the geographical aspect,Prasat Phar Wihan stands within the Thai boundary because all small streams that come from the top of the hill run down directly into the Mun River in northeastem Thailand. Also, from the Thai border, Prasat phra Wihan is more easily accessed than from Cambodia. The local people in the Northeast normally walk up by the streams to the summit of the hill while the Cambodians have to climb up broken staircases which are too steep to climb up comfortably. Khao Phra Wihan at Muang Boran is an artificial hill with 54 meters high, 66 meters wide and 250 meters of hill slope. 684 pillars have been used to shore up the hill, 2,400 truckloads of rockfill were used to create the lofty hill. 40 rai of land mass was dug up for topsoil to cover the hill slope.

Evidence (2024-01-01): For generations, Prasat Preah Vihear (called Khao Phra Wiharn by the Thais) has been a source of tension between Cambodia and Thailand. This area was ruled by Thailand for several centuries, but returned to Cambodia during the French protectorate, under the treaty of 1907. But sovereignty over the temple has been an issue ever since, with tensions between Cambodia and Thailand flaring up from time to time – most recently from 2008 to 2011, when armed confrontations around the temple claimed the lives of several dozen soldiers and some civilians on both sides.

A half-kilometre west of the Cambodian-controlled ruins, Pha Mo E Daeng cliff is part of Thailand. When drawing up borders between French Indochina (including Cambodia) and independent Siam (now Thailand) in 1907, the French mappers diverged briefly north of the agreed-upon watershed border demarcation in a lasso of the pen that put Khao Phra Wihan on French land. The Thais remained silent about this until the mid-20th century, when the issue was resolved by a 1962 International Court of Justice ruling that granted the site to Cambodia.
