Unique temple complex situated on a hill top with sweeping views of Thailand and Cambodia. Unlike other temples I visited in Cambodia there are long walk ways between the doorways, enhancing the expansive feel of the temple. In jarring contrast are the sand bag 'pill boxes' with slits aimed toward Thailand. Not long ago the temple site was hotly contested between Thai and Cambodian troops
You must rent a pickup truck for $10 for the steep drive to the complex, self driving is not allowed.
Most domestic visitors stay in nearby guest houses because of Preah Vihear's remoteness, I was with a Cambodian friend and stayed at guest house with basic accommodations for $30 a night.
Cellphone reception is spotty if you're depending on web-based maps for guidance.

WOW, this place was awesome. Unbelievable view and road trip. If you ever come here you are lucky because it is right like at a border of Thailand and Cambodia. It was said that any conflict could occur anything but at the time nothing luckily happened.
There are soldiers who lives there with their families so I helped out by donating stuff with my family.
If you were to go here to the temple, you would have to rent someone who lives around there. I believe that there is like the business area for it somewhere in the bottom of the mountain.
The road trip was very steep but it was adventurous road trip.
They also sell stuff up the mountain as well. I would buy some stuff up there because just to help out the people who live up the mountain.
Excellent tour!
FYI: I went here during 2015 but, thetripadvisor, didn't let me select the correct date.
