Kulen Mountain is located in Svay Leu and Varin Districts, 60 kilometers away from Siem Reap City, and about 25 km from Banteay Srei Temple. Kulen Mountain, originally named Mahinda, is where Jayavarman II celebrates the Reformation and reunion of independence in Java in 802, when the Angkorian period takes place. It was the first Khmer city of the Khmer Empire for nearly half a century before moving to the Himalayas, now called Rolus. There are about 20 temples found on this mountain. Phnom Kulen is a Khmer people regarded as a shrine in Cambodia and is a favorite place for pilgrimage during the weekend of the festival. It is home to a significant role in the history of the Khmer Empire. On the top of the mountain there is a small pagoda with a statue of a Buddha statue carved out of rocky mountains. Nearby is a waterfall, an attractive tourist attraction. In the slopes, there is a small sanctuary where the water is called water, where the water comes out of the rock and is regarded as the water of God, which is why it comes from the shrine of Sha sha.

All peaks have an altitude of about 400 m. The highest peak is 487 meters high. Geographically, a large part of Phnom Kulen is sandstone, and therefore there is a tremendous message in the Angkorian period, providing materials for construction of various constructions, including temples in the Angkor area. The main source lies in the southeast of the mountain. On Kulen Mountains there are many attractions in the Kulen Mountains National Park. The area is located in Svay Play and Varin district.
