The Silver Pagoda as it stands today is the outcome of two major construction phases. The original structure was built in 1892 during the reign of King Norodom as a wooden building designed to enshrine the ashes of the Cambodian royal family and to host Buddhist ceremonies attended by royalty. Throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the compound expanded to include other significant structures such as stupas, shrines, a library, and a gallery adorned with elaborate murals. In 1962, during King Norodom Sihanouk’s rule, the present concrete and marble version of the pagoda replaced the original, and the iconic solid silver floor tiles were installed, lending the temple its popular name.
