Terrace of the Elephants

It is precisely that, a 300 meter terrace extending from the Baphuon Temple to the Terrace of the Leper King. The main person who used this terrace was the king, because of the scenery, he could follow the military marches of his generals and soldiers after their victories in a battle. This terrace has 3 levels with well preserved reliefs. The main part of the terrace is the facade where you can see the heads of elephants with their trunks ending in a lotus flower. As Michelangelo said perfectly, it's a clear zone when the sun is beating down.
