Summary[edit]

Description

Travaux de restauration du Bakong Les ouvriers cambodgiens transportent les pierres sans matériel de levage, comme le faisaent leurs ancêtres

_____________

Le Bakong est le temple-montagne d'Etat du Roi Indravarman 1er (877-889). Il est consacré au culte hindouiste shivaïte et au dieu Indreshvara (représenté sous forme de linga).

Il est orienté vers l'est, construit sur une levée de terre de 900 m sur 700 m et comprend cinq gradins formant une pyramide de 14 mètres de hauteur. Les soubassements sont pour la 1ère fois construits en grès et les tours en briques (elles sont postérieures de 2 siècles à la pyramide). Des statues d'éléphants, gardiens des points intermédiaires, sont situées aux angles des 3 premiers étages.

Le temple-montagne est entouré de douves remplies d'eau, symbolisant l'océan primordial de la cosmogonie hindouiste.

Au sommet, se dresse une tour-sanctuaire représentant le Kailâsa, la demeure du dieu Shiva (construite dans le style d'Angkor et restaurée de 1936 à 1943 par l'archéologue français Maurice Glaize.
