Sras Damrei (Kulen Mountain)- ស្រះដំរី នៅលើភ្នំគូលែន

Sras Damei (meaning Elephant Pond on the top of Kulen Mountain) is found on the top of Kulen Mountain, about 5.5 Km southwest of Anlong Thom village. It is a group of big stone animal carvings made from natural sandstone. The carvings include an elephant, two lions, and another figure that some people think looks like a frog. In front of them is a carving of a bull, Nandin, with two small stone basins nearby, close to the edge of the cliff. These carvings are believed to have been made in the 8th or 9th century.
