前方来到帕威汉城堡（Prasat Phra Wihan）：
当时没来得及细看。事后问谷哥：
Prasat phra Wihan (Preah Vihear) stands on the summit of Phra Wihan Hill, on the south face of the Phanom Dong Rak Range escarpment on the Thai-Cambodian border, Si Sa Ket Province. This stone sanctuary was built in the reign of King Suryavarman I around 1038 A.D.
As for the architectural style, beginning from the depression at the foot of the hill slope and moving up to the hill, one passes through a series of 4 groups of stone structures established at different levels. All buildings have gable roofs, not the spired pyramid roofs of palace structures. It would be more correct to call the ruins “monthien”.

帕纳那莱佛塔（Phra That Narai Cheng Weng）：
继续问谷哥：
Phra That Narai Cheng Weng or Phra That Narai Jengveng is located at Amphur Muang Sakon Nakhon Province, the stupa is built from sandstone on a laterite base and carved beautifully. Its lintel features Lord Krisna killing Lion in Bapuan Khmer art. The art appearing on this stupa is quite similar to many other Khmer ruins found in Isan.
帕登-南爱花园（The Garden of Pha Daeng-Nang Ai）
看上面的文字介绍原来是个传奇故事：
“南爱，康康城（Khomkham）最美的姑娘，和帕蓬统治者帕登多次幽会。纳噶王子发现了南爱的无可匹敌的美丽，却无法获得芳心。最后，他把自己变成一只白松鼠，试图欺骗和绑架南爱。白松鼠失败而被杀。。。
之后暴雨淹没了整座城市。帕登试图逃脱，但南爱从马上摔下来，淹死在河中。白松鼠的灵魂成了纳嘎国王，把南爱带到他的水下王国。”
七头纳嘎保护佛祖：
欲知后事如何，请听下回分解。
