Ta Keo is a temple-mountain in Angkor, Siem Reap, Cambodia, dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva. Built during the reign of King Jayavarman V in the late 10th to early 11th century, it is notable for its massive scale and austere, undecorated appearance, as it was left unfinished. The temple stands on a five-tiered pyramid structure, symbolizing Mount Meru, and offers impressive views from its summit. Its architecture features a central sanctuary surrounded by smaller towers, all constructed from sandstone.
