The Ancient Khmer Highway was a roadway going northwest between Angkor (in Cambodia) and Phimai (  now in Thailand)  While it was not the only such road built by the Khmer, it was the most important one. Most of the road is overgrown by the jungle , and only visible today on aerial photographs. Few of the rest house chapels or hospital chapels survive (only the chapels remain as they were the only buildings built of sandstone or laterite, and all wooden constructions rotted away long ago). The only part of the road which is still driveable is at the entrance to the town of Phimai (state route 2163).
