	Banteay Samre
		The Samres are an indigenous people of uncertain origin - they populated the region at the foot of the Kulen hills, and the inhabitants of Pradak are considered as their descendants.
		Banteay Samre, overrun with vegetation and cluttered with fallen blocks from its upper parts, had all the usual charm of ruins lost in the forest, but was no more than an object without form or personality.
		The overall dimensions of Banteay Samre are sufficiently small that, no matter from where, one gets the impression of the whole as being a complete composition of impeccable proportions, and all the more slender since the buildings are all perched high on a platform leaving the courtyard at a lower level.

	APSARA - Bantey Srei
		Banteay Srei temple was founded by an important dignitary who served during the reign of Rajendravarman and then in the reign of Jayavarman V. Commenced in 967 AD, this work attracted the support of his brother and sister, as attested by inscriptions on the stone door jambs of the lateral sanctuaries of the central group.
		Proof of the continued occupation and therefore the maintenance of Banteay Srei and the surrounding site called Ishvarapura (with the Siem Reap river as the source of water), is provided by one important inscription of the early 14th century that can be seen on a stone door jamb of the gopura in the third enclosure.
		A recent joint project between the APSARA Authority and the Swiss government entitled, 'Conservation of Banteay Srei' officially commenced at the beginning of July 2002.This project is planned for a three-year period from 2002 to 2005.

	Cambodia Tales - Banteay Srei
		The name Banteay Srei means the "Citadel of Women", primarily due to its size and was one of the first temples to be restored by the French earlier this century, using a process known as anastylosis.
		The passage of time, vandalism and theft has robbed the temple of its best lintels and frontons but it is still evident in those that remain, that Banteay Samre, in its heyday, would've held its own with the best Angkor has to offer.
		Decorative, multi-headed nagas and sculpted collonettes abound throughout and one feature of the temple I'd not noticed elsewhere were stone spikes running across the centre ridge of the roof of most of the galleries and key buildings.

	World Wide Wanders - Travel Review - Cambodia - Attraction
		Banteay Samre is located away from the main bulk of temples and therefore takes a while to reach, although the trip there is very scenic and passes through several villages.
		We originally planned to visit Bantaey Samre before heading out to even more remote temples, but our Tuk-Tuk driver wanted too much money because of the distance involved but agreed to take us to Bantaey Samre for the same fare, so for us Banteay Samre was the most remote temple we visited.
		Banteay Samre was a nice temple to visit, but should not be put on the hit list if on a tight schedule unless other temples in the area are not to be visited.
