Built in 921 AD, Prasat Kravan is a small temple consisting of five reddish brick towers on a common terrace. It was dedicated to Vishnu according to inscription on door jambs.

There are staircases in front of each tower that were originally guarded by two lions. Today just a few of these lion statues remain.
