Forestry Management Unit
Preah PaliLay Temple
The Forestry Management Unit is in charge of the security
of the monuments and visitors cause from risky trees factor.
At the moment, the Unit is rescuesing at Preah Palilay temple
which has 5 Spong trees growing on the temple and can be
providing dangerous to the temple.
Among the five trees, there are two growing on the basement
of the temple, which has 40-centimeter height and 60 to
80 centimeter diameters in average, and most of these trees
have a hole in side. When they break or fall during storms
or heavy rains some rock of the temple will open up, which
make it to lean or collapse. Thus our team did a survey
before cutting some part of these trees, in order to save
the temple.
Cutting work is very difficult because the five trees grow
on the temple; build the wooden scaffoldings (take more time)
and avoiding the danger to the ancient structure or visitors.
Even thought, the Unit has more difficulties but they effort
to complete the work up to hundred percent.
