This marker temple consists of five brick towers in quincunx order on a shared platform with four square towers surrounding one rectangular tower. The four towers are oriented towards the Rahal, while the middle tower, which has three rooms, faces to the east and west. The inscriptions in this temple, written in old Khmer script, describe Jayavarman IV’s construction of the temple for worship and dedication to Tribhuvanadeva along with offerings and slaves from other part of the country. Prasat Krachap is distinguished from other temples nearby Rohal by its laterite causeway to the Rohal and by the richness of its surviving artefacts, including 38 inscriptions and a number of magnificent statues that were housed in its middle tower. A number of these statues were looted, but have recently been repatriated to Cambodia, including the renowned Shiva and Skanda, his son, and Skanda on a peacock, while others are now being excavated by Cambodian archaeologists, and will be displayed in the National Museum of Cambodia in Phnom Penh.
