The oldest building is Prang ,where assumed to be built in Lopburi period. When Ayudhaya period,this temple was renovated by king, also they built others buildings such as mondapa housed buddha?s footprint and ordination hall (for now ,it ?s just a sign of semas or boundary marker surrounded a small new hall ).
For Prang, built from laterite on 3 bases.On its wall decorated with stucco in Ayudhaya style . Some shcolars assumed it was added on the time of renovation in the riegn of King Borom Tri Lokkanath. The most beautiful stucco ?re Thai swan and flowers details. This temple ?s a great place to see the real Ayudhaya craftmen created.

Ubosot

Built in Sukhothai period like Phra Sri Rattana Mahathat temple. And when Ayudhaya period,King Borom Trilokkanath came for renovation and gave its name.
Things to see :
+Chedi , a white bell shape chedi on high base. Some scholars said this chedi contains the relic of King Borom Tri Lokkanath.
+Viharn, next to chedi . Inside there’re mural paintings on the East wall depicted about Buddha subduing Mara scene .
+Ubosot , on the East of temple. Inside ,there’re mural paintings on surrounded walls, depicted about Ramayana epic. All painting drawn in the riegn of King Rama IV of Rattanakosin period. Not just a style, I think these pictures also presented old local lifestyle of Phitsanuloke people .
The dangerous thing here : try to avoid the north side of viharn ,there ‘re a big group of fierce dogs.

Directions: Near Nan river, on the East side of Naresuan bridge ,opposite Phra Sri Mahathat temple. Just cross the road from there. Take a bus from train station, bus no. 1,3 or 5 ,drop at Mahathat temple and cross the road to this temple.
