Prasat Bei (Khmer: ប្រាសាទបី, "three temples") is a temple with three brick towers in a north-south row, facing to the east, and standing on a laterite platform. The central tower contained a linga; the flanking towers reach no higher than the doorways. Only the lintels of the central and south towers were carved, both showing Indra on the elephant Airavata.[1]
