Originally, it was a Hindu temple dedicated to Shiva, built between the 10th and 13th centuries. Only building in the Historical Park of Phanom Rung, it has been carefully restored and is definitely worth a detour especially for its long paved driveway.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7888\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thailandee.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/phanom-rung.jpg\" alt=\"phanom rung buriram\" width=\"749\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you want to visit it or attend the festival, I recommend you book your hotel in Nang Rong, the closest town, rather than in Buriram.<\/p>\n<p>Here you will find a list of <a href=\"\/en\/accommodation-thailand\/\">accommodations\u00a0in Nang Rong<\/a> and on <a href=\"\/en\/cities\/to-go-leave-nang-rong\">this page<\/a>, all information for you to get\u00a0there.<\/p>\n<p><em>Visit the website HERE to discover other <a href=\"\/en\/events-thailand\/\">events and festivals in Thailand<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Phanom Rung is probably the most beautiful Khmer temple in Thailand.
