Ang Chan I or Chan Reachea (Khmer: ចន្ទរាជា, Candarājā; 1486–1566) was a Cambodian king who reigned from 1516 to 1566. He was regarded as one of the most illustrious Cambodian kings of the post-Angkor era. He was appointed the ouparach (heir apparent or viceroy) by Damkhat Sokonthor in 1507. As viceroy, he ruled the region of Phnom Penh and the eastern provinces.
He was ousted by a pretender named Sdach Korn in 1512. He fled to Siam and returned with a Siamese army in 1516. In the same year, he was crowned at Pursat after putting down several rebellions inspired by Neay Kan. He regained the city of Longvek from the Siamese, and built the new capital there. In 1525, Ang Chan used firearms and cannons when attacking Sdach Korn, within 3 months, Ang Chan was able to kill Sdach Korn and his followers and decapitated him.
Portuguese missionary Gaspar da Cruz visited Longvek in 1556 during Ang Chan's reign and preached the gospel, but in the next year, he had to leave the country disappointedly because most of Cambodians were devout Buddhists and refused to convert to Roman Catholicism.
