For years it was difficult to reach, but a road recently built to the temple complex of Koh Ker passes Beng Mealea and more visitors are coming to the site, as it is 77 km from Siem Reap by road. It was built by King Suryavarman II who built the Angkor Wat temple. He built this temple for his ancestors. However, this temple is covered by the jungle.
