11th-century Relief Carvings Line The Stream Beds Along This Series Of Waterfalls.
This lesser advertised site is a gem to behold. A shaivites bucket list dream for sure. (The other known SahasraLinga site in the world is in India, located around 14 km from the Sirsi Taluk in the district of Uttar Kannada of Karnataka.) The Cambodian SahasraLinga is amazing to behold with the more than thousand Lingas in the rockbed of the river. One can do the 1.8km jungle trek or get a driver to take you to the stream directly. With less able tourists and young children opt for the latter. The carved rock formations date back to 11th century and span 150 meters of the Stung Kbal Spean River. It must have taken some effort to hammer out these carvings in the presence of flowing water. They are arranged in formations grouped into 8x8 matrices. These groups of 64 signify the 64 forms of Lord Shiva described in the Puranas. There is also a submerged carving of the reclining form of Lord Vishnu slightly further upstream. Couple this site with a visit to nearby Buddha and Shiva Temple followed by a dip in the waterfalls which is totally refreshing. If your itinerary allows, do not miss this hidden gem - an archaeologists’ pilgrimage.

A friend and I rented a moto and found this waterfall a short distance from town. It is a nice sized waterfall with a great little suspension bridge leading to it. Great place for some photos! They also have some examples of traditional houses up in the parking area. It seems like a favorite location for locals but few western tourists seem to visit this location. We found it a great place to spend an hour.
