Terrace of the Leper King
Visit the Terrace of the Leper King for its narrow, double-walled passage of densely carved figures. Its hidden inner relief wall makes the passage more revealing than the exterior alone.

Keep exploring Siem Reap with our travel partners.
The concealed inner wall is the main reason to stop: figures continue behind the more visible outer face. The passage offers a different scale of carving from the open terrace nearby. Move through the tight corridor to see figures that are easy to miss from the square. Comparing the inner and outer carvings makes the layered construction legible.
What to look for
Enter the passage to see the inner wall.
Compare the rows of figures on the two faces.
Notice how the narrow corridor changes the view of the sculpture.
Useful to know
Use the signed passage route and take care in the confined space.
Allow time to look at the inner carvings rather than only the exterior.
