  If you are traveling by car, head towards Pokambor Avenue in Krong Siem Reap. From the center of Kandal, take National Road 6 heading northwest. After approximately 45 minutes of driving, you will arrive at the bustling area of Krong Siem Reap. Look for Temple Coffee & Bakery on your left; Wat Preah Prom Rath is directly opposite this café. Parking is available along the street.

• Public Transportation (Bus)

  To reach Wat Preah Prom Rath via public transportation, find a bus that routes to Krong Siem Reap from Kandal. Buses typically depart from the main bus station in Kandal. The journey will take about 1 to 1.5 hours, depending on traffic. Once you reach Krong Siem Reap, disembark at the bus station. From there, you can either walk towards Pokambor Avenue, which is about a 15-minute walk, or take a tuk-tuk for a small fee (around $2). The temple is located opposite Temple Coffee & Bakery.

• Tuk-Tuk

  If you're already in Kandal and prefer a more direct route, hiring a tuk-tuk is a convenient option. Negotiate a fare with the driver (typically $10-$15 for a round trip) and request to be taken to Wat Preah Prom Rath. The journey will take approximately 30-45 minutes depending on traffic. Once you arrive, the temple is located directly opposite Temple Coffee & Bakery, making it easy to find.
