Terrace of the Elephants
The Elephant terrace is part of the walls of the city of Angkor Thom, the ruined temple complex in Cambodia. The Terrace was used by the king of Angkor Dzhayavarmanom VII as a platform from which he looked for a procession returning victorious army. It was attached to the palace Pimenakas, which left only a few ruins. Most of the original structure of the terrace was made of organic materials and has long been destroyed. All that we are now witnessing is the basic platform of the terrace.
Short Title 2The name she received from a picture of elephants on its eastern slope. For a long time the terrace of Elephants was used as a giant platform for public ceremonies and served as the basis for a large audience hall of the king. She had five flushes extended to the base to the central area and three were in the center and one at the edges. The central part of the retaining walls were decorated with lions, and the famous parade of elephants, led by Khmer drivers.
