The East Baray is a baray at Angkor, Cambodia, orientated east-west and located just east of Angkor Thom. It was constructed by elevating dykes rather than by excavation. The dykes are 7.5 by 1.8 km, creating a capacity of 50 million cubic metres. It was originally called Yashodharatataka, named after its creator King Yashovarman. The baray is now dry. In the middle of the baray is the East Mebon.
