Angkor Thom North Gate
Angkor Thom’s North Gate preserves the same guardian-lined causeway form, with a quieter approach than the South Gate. Its guardian figures and carved tower offer a second reading of the city’s gateways.

The tower and causeway guardians let visitors compare the city’s entrances without repeating the central temple visit. Its northern setting makes it useful as a separate gate stop on a wider Angkor loop. Inspect the figures along the causeway before passing beneath the tower. Comparing this northern entrance with the South Gate shows how the same gateway design works in different settings.
