Montop in Wat Kean Kleang
The mondop is a building form in traditional Cambodian religious architecture featuring a square or cruciform building with a usually pointed roof. In the narrow sense, it refers to an enclosed square building with a roughly pyramidal, multi-tiered roof culminating in a tall pointed spire, with a roof structure very similar to the smaller busabok.
The Mondop may be used for various functions, including as scripture halls and for housing religious artefacts.

Interessantes Gebäude und lehrreich deine Beschreibung dazu.Der Buddhismus scheint wieder fest Fuß gefasst zuhaben nach der "gottlosen Zeit" während des Pol Pot-Regimes.
