I had the pleasure of visiting Wat Langka during my recent trip to Cambodia, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. This beautiful temple is steeped in history and culture, and it was amazing to see all of the intricate details and artwork that make it so unique. The temple grounds are peaceful and serene, and the lush greenery that surrounds the temple creates a wonderful atmosphere that is perfect for meditation and reflection. The architecture of the temple is simply breathtaking, with stunning carvings and decorations that showcase the incredible skill of the artisans who created them. The highlight of my visit to Wat Langka was definitely the opportunity to speak with some of the monks who live and work there. They were so welcoming and friendly, and I learned so much about their way of life and the teachings of Buddhism. It was a truly enlightening experience that I will never forget. Overall, I cannot recommend Wat Langka highly enough. Whether you are a history buff, a culture lover, or simply looking for a peaceful place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, this temple is definitely worth a visit. It is a five-star attraction that truly deserves all of the praise it has received!

The temple's stunning architecture and intricate details make it a must-visit destination for anyone interested in Cambodian culture and history.

The temple is also a popular spot for meditation and spiritual retreats, providing visitors with a unique opportunity to connect with their inner selves in a tranquil and serene environment. Overall, Wat Langka is a truly beautiful and inspiring place that should not be missed when visiting Phnom Penh.

The purpose why we went there was to attend mediation with the monks but there was none when we arrived. Nevertheless I will give it 3 stars because going there is free. No entrance fee. They have this time to meditate with the monks on selected days. If I am not mistaken, MONDAYS-SATURDAYS 5pm to 7pm. Sorry, I forgot to write down the schedule. No meditation on Sunday. We went there Sunday so we had no luck. Anyway, the architecture is beautiful. It's just near Independence Monument so if you have spare time you can just stop by to have a picture taken and continue with the rest of your tour.

Wat Langka, one of Phnom Penh’s oldest pagodas, was established in 1442. This serene temple, located near the Independence Monument, serves as a sanctuary for Buddhist teachings and a meditation center. Its beautiful Khmer architecture, tranquil gardens, and rich history make it a must-visit. Despite the turmoil of the Khmer Rouge era, Wat Langka remained untouched, preserving its spiritual and cultural significance.

when i entered this temple i was confused this temple or house, not too wide and quite quiet. then what intrigued me was the building on the edge of the temple, and it turned out to be an ash storage building for a family that had died. to enter here you don't need to pay and the location is close to the national independence museum
