The Ensemble of Phanom Rung, Muang Tam and Plai Bat Sanctuaries are a series of important Angkorian structures, built for the worship of Shiva. Phanom Rung sanctuary was built on the top of Phanom Rung Mountain, an extinct volcano, between the 10th and 13th centuries CE. The temple of Muang Tam was built on a nearby plain, while the sacred tower of Plai Bat was also built on an extinct volcano.
