Nice view of the east-facing facade of the north sanctuary tower of Cambodia's Banteay Srei (Citadel of the Women) temple. The entrance is guarded by two squatting gate guardians who have human bodies and faces of the mythical bird Garuda. The dvarapalas on the left side have monkey faces and belong to the mantapa facade. The right side of the photo shows part of the northern library.
