An old temple where was so important in Ayudhaya Kingdom. From the history,King Borom Trilokanath was once took his monk life there.
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.

chedi

Formerly an old temple in the same age as Phra Sri Rattana Mahathat temple or built in Sukhothai period. It 's just only one temple in Phitsanuloke where still have a lotus bud chedi.

If you go by bus, take a bus no. 8 ,when it turn to Phya Seu Rd. or when it passed the railway ,notice for the right. It located on Soi 4 and you must walk about 200 metres to this temple.

Originally , it was a location of big viharn housed Phra Attarot .Nowaday , it just remains a big buddha image in standing position and some columns . This viharn assumed to be built in Sukhothai period ,same as the front viharn named viharn Phra Buddha Chinnarat. The big building with the standing buddha image was so poppular in Sukhothai period, as you can see some monuments in Sukhothai and Phitsanuloke .

If you 'd like to visit this place ,just notice the big buddha image. The building is now laying as green field and just an image and columns standing.

Thereýre some ruins buildings which the principal chedi decorated with buddha images stucco in walking position at the base(just remains 2 stuccos). The style of these stucco same as stucco images surrounded the base of Mahathat chedi in Sukhothai .
When I visited all building covered with tree ,though it located in government office but seems worthless for this place. So sad!!
