via Phnom Penh Post, 06 August 2020: Prasat Damrei Krab on Phnom Kulen is presently undergoing restoration by the Apsara Authority.
Apsara National Authority acting director of the Department of Conservation of Monuments Outside Angkor Park, Chhean Ratha, said a project is underway to restore Damrei Krab temple in Phnom Kulen, Siem Reap province.
Over the years, roots, overgrown vegetation and thieves making off with pieces of the temple have damaged its structural integrity.
The project to restore the temple, located in Khnang Phnom commune’s Anlong Thom village, in Svay Leu district, began on July 20 and will be completed by December 31.
The ANA has decided to strengthen the decaying roof around the temple’s tower, repair the east gate and fill cracks in the wall.
