The walkway leading to the nakaraj bridge looks like the connection point of eart
h and heaven. It is considered one of the ancient remains with excellent craftsmanship which is the evidence of civilization of the ancient Khmer empire.As per the tone inscription found at the castle, the Panomrung castle was built based on the believe in Sawai doctrine of Hinduism in which Siva is respected as prophet.
