Ta Keo is the temple that has not yet been finished to built because of the death of king Jayavarman V. The large rocks of this temple have been sorted but the carving workers have not come back at here so that finally this temple has a special image with the natural and solid beauty, it is simple in the whole temple.

Ta Keo Temple was built to worship Shiva and it is located in the east of the Angkor Thom Temple Complex. Ta Keo Temple is the rock temple and it is little dangerous because of its own height, it is upright and it does not get any adhesive matter so that it makes the tourist feel this temple could break anytime.

It takes around one hour to explore and visit complete Ta Keo Temple, this is a relic that shows skillfully of Khmer architectures in building a great and waste project. The deserted landscape and there was not any genie to be worshiped in Ta Keo Temple as well as it has been not yet ended to build in the past so that this thing made Ta Keo Temple become the most unfortunate temple in Angkor Temple Complex.
