Wat Ek Phnom temple is located in Tkov village, Peam Ek commune, about 14 kilometers from Battambang provincial town. The temple was built in AD 1027, during the reign of King Suryavarman I. There are 18 bodhi trees around the temple. They are lovely to look at and provide abundant fresh air. Outside the temple to the south, there is a moat that is now a pond.
