| The Silver Pagoda's proper name is Wat Preah Keo Morokat, which means 'The Temple Of The Emerald Buddha'. This is the pagoda where King Norodom Sihamoni meets with monks and listens to their sermons and some Royal Ceremonies are performed. The Temple houses a large collection of priceless Buddihist Objects including the Emerald Buddha. |
