The Queen's Palace means "woman's castle", according to the original name "Shiva Palace". In the 5th century AD, Brahmanism was introduced to Cambodia from India. It reached its peak in the 9th to 10th centuries. In the middle of the 10th century, the "Sweet Palace" was built by the devout goddess. At that time, every year on April 29th of the Cambodian lunar calendar, a holy bathing ceremony was held here. The devout men and women came to the "Shiva Palace" and bathed in the Siem Reap River before the palace to wash their sins. This pink and exquisite palace is very special, not with grey sandstone, but with stronger iron-bearing red sandstone. The Palace of Queens is different from the temples built by other kings in terms of highlighting power and merit. She vividly depicts a wonderful mythical story with an elegant style, and legendary Hindu magical and beautiful legends. She was also buried in the jungle for hundreds of years, until the French soldier Marek unveiled her veil in 1914, causing the Eastern Mona Lisa, which has been sleeping for hundreds of years, to see the world and welcome tourists from all over the world. And the explorer, known as the "Angkor ancient monument pearl." Distinct from other Angkor monuments, the carvings here are so beautiful that it is impossible to believe that this is a work of the millennium.
