The Cambodian Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts has dispatched experts to inspect the ongoing construction of a temple in Wat Phu Man Fah, located in Thailand’s Buriram province. This temple appears to be a replica of Cambodia’s renowned Angkor Wat.

The ministry said it is committed to safeguarding the integrity of ancestral heritage and will take all necessary measures to address this concern.

“After sending experts to inspect the construction site at Wat Phu Man Fah, we found that no additional construction has taken place,” said the Cambodian culture ministry in a September 26 statement. Mab explained that the Cambodian side had previously requested the architectural plans of the structure to determine if indeed it resembled Angkor Wat. However, the Thai side responded that they did not possess such plans.

“Our commitment to safeguarding our cultural heritage remains unwavering. We are resolute in preventing its replication and will employ all available means to address this matter. Rest assured, we will not leave this issue unresolved,” he affirmed. He stressed that these structures can never authentically replicate the original 12th-century temple.
