Buri Ram Travel Guide :

Prang Ku Suan Taeng 

        Buri Ram is also known as the City of Pleasantness. It is one of the largest and most populated provinces of northeastern Thailand, and it is approximately 410 kilometers from Bangkok. The Province is also home to many historical ruins and sites, which are worth exploring if you want to learn more about Thailand's rich history.

 

        One such place is Prang Ku Suan Taeng, which is located opposite the Ku Suan Taeng Witthayakhom School in Don Wai sub-district. It is built in Khmer style architecture and is made up 3 brick prangs resting on the same laterite base. The prangs face from north to south. However, the faces of the buildings are towards the East and there is just one front entrance. The other three doors that are visible on the three sides are false.

        The prang in the middle is large and even today it is in a near-perfect condition. It has a square shape and a front porch. The pediments, which are present above the three false doors, are projecting out and each one is supported by a sandstone slab. The other two prangs are considerably smaller and are resting on a square-shaped base.

        Right in front of the prangs, you can make out the ruins of the rest of building like the lotus-shaped based and the ante fixtures comprising of a 6-headed Naga. The lintels of the Prang Ku Suan Taeng are housed at the Phra Nakhon and Phimai National Museums. Prang Ku Suan Taeng is suppose to date back to the 12th century as the lintels show the same artistic designs as those found in the Angkor Wat-style of Khmer art.
