Despite living in Cambodia for five years, I only recently ventured to Wat Kesararam in my final weeks living in Siem Reap. Located next to Sokha Hotel on Road Six, this pagoda has a dark history. Since 2001, human bones have been discovered on an ongoing basis at the site. These were the remains of victims of the Khmer Rouge ...
Wat Kesararam is the most confusing pagoda in all of Siem Reap. The inconsistencies in name were driving me insane and the more I was trying to find out which name was correct, the more confusing it was getting. Basically, aside from Wat Kesararam, this pagoda is often referred to as Wat Keseram. Not even Cambodians themselves know which name is right and which is wrong as each you ask them about it, they will give you different answer. Hence it is best to refer to it by its English name – Pagoda of the Cornflower Petals.
Wat Keseram was constructed in the early 1970s. The main building of Wat Kesararam or the “Pagoda of the Cornflower Petals” contains a great and detailed collection of the life of Buddha on the interior.
Wat Keseram is located in the center of the Siem Reap, Cambodia on Road No 6 to the aiport just after the Sokha Hotel. Pagodas and monks welcome visitors and tourists. Please always remember to not disturb monks during prayer or eating times, women are not allowed to touch monks, bow slightly in the presence of older monks, don’t point soles of feet or fingers towards monks or Buddha statues, sit with feet tucked behind rather than crossed, hats off in the monastery grounds, take off your shoes in the building, speak softly, ask before taking pictures, don’t enter closed buildings without permission, contribute what you can to the donation box.
It’s the perfect way for getting around the temples. Taking your bike into the historical park isn’t a problem and you don’t have to pay anything for it. Those faces just rise out of every ...
