The Throne Hall, also known as the Preah Tineang Tevea Vinichhay, serves as the centerpiece of the palace. Its distinctive Khmer design, with towering spires and ornate decor, stands as a testament to the country’s architectural prowess. The hall has been a venue for various royal ceremonies and is still used for official events today.
Adjacent to the Throne Hall lies the Moonlight Pavilion, a stunning open-air pavilion that once hosted classical dance performances and entertainment for the royal family. Its delicate design and graceful structure add to the palace’s overall charm.
One of the most revered structures within the complex is the Silver Pagoda, also known as the Temple of the Emerald Buddha. Here, visitors can marvel at the stunning floor adorned with over 5,000 silver tiles, each weighing over a kilogram. The pagoda houses a magnificent collection of Buddha statues, including the revered Emerald Buddha, a precious and sacred statue carved from a single piece of jade.
