Prasat Yeay Poan est composé de nombreux temples en brique et en latérite. De forme rectangulaire ou octogonale, chacun est décoré de sculptures impressionnantes en brique, appelées « Palais volant ». Ce groupe de temples est entouré d'un mur intérieur en brique et d'un mur extérieur en latérite, percés de portes à l'est et à l'ouest, et de fausses portes au sud et au nord. Des inscriptions confirment que le groupe de temples a été construit sous le règne du roi Ishanavarman Ier, de 616 à 637 apr. J.-C.

Le Prasat Tao fut construit par Isanavarman Ier et Jayavarman au VIIe siècle. Situé entre le Prasat Sambor et le Prasat Yeay Poan, le Prasat Tao est également appelé le groupe central (ou simplement C) de Sambor Prei Kuk. Son plan est similaire à celui de Yeay Poan : un mur d'enceinte en latérite entoure un grand sanctuaire central, des tours auxiliaires et des tours en briques supplémentaires dans une enceinte extérieure formée par un second mur. Dans ce cas, les vestiges de cinq structures sont visibles autour de la tour centrale, et huit autres dans la partie extérieure.

PRASAT BOS REAM Un site curieux, situé dans la forêt, à une courte distance au nord de Prasat Sandan, est composé de sept monticules de briques orientés à l'est et alignés en diagonale du nord-est au sud-ouest. Il ne reste plus grand-chose à voir aujourd'hui, hormis des monticules de terre couverts de buissons, mais le site devait être impressionnant à l'origine. Un étang artificiel se trouve au nord, mais aucun vestige de mur d'enceinte n'est visible. Il est tout à fait inhabituel que des sept sanctuaires présumés, il ne reste rien aujourd'hui, à l'exception de quelques rangées de briques.

Trapeang Ropeak Temple is a 7th-century pre-Angkorian octagonal brick shrine at Sambor Prei Kuk, notable for a large tree growing through its structure and for its unique, octagonal shape, which likely represents the Vimana Trivishtapa, or the flying palace of the god Indra. The temple is located to the northwest of temple Z and is surrounded by an environment that has been heavily reclaimed by nature.

Bos Ream Temple (also known as Tower N24 or Prasat Rong Chambak) is an unexcavated, rectangular brick temple at the Sambor Prei Kuk archaeological site, characterized by its unique tree-covered elevation and remnants of early Khmer architectural decorations.

Chrey Temple (Prasat Chrey) is a pre-Angkorian brick sanctuary at the Sambor Prei Kuk archaeological site that is famous for being almost entirely engulfed by the roots of a massive strangler fig tree. This temple, also designated N18, was once part of a larger complex but is now partially separated by a road. Its picturesque ruins are a popular photo spot, showcasing a beautiful but destructive interplay between nature and ancient architecture.

It is a small “cell” shrine, open to the east, around 3 m in height and width. It's made of sandstone featuring ornate pilasters/pillars also working as supports for the thin slabs of sandstone that make the walls and the roof slab.

Drum Chan Temple is a misinterpretation of a temple complex in Sambor Prei Kuk, a pre-Angkorian archaeological site in Cambodia from the 7th century. The name likely refers to the "Temple Zone" which includes clusters like Prasat Sambor (the main temple), Prasat Yeah Puon, and Prasat Boram. This UNESCO World Heritage Site features unique octagonal temples, and its architectural and artistic style, known as the Sambor Prei Kuk style, was a precursor to the Angkorian period.

Kbal Chrouk Temple, also known as Tower N20, is a ruined rectangular brick temple at Sambor Prei Kuk, notable for its ornate sandstone doorframe, a K. 439 inscription, and reliefs of "flying palaces".

The temple, which opens to the east, is part of a larger archaeological site recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
