Wat Maha That (Buddha’s Head in Tree Roots)
Most famous for the Buddha's head in the tree roots. No one really knows how it ended up here, but it was possible it was left behind by looters, who raided the city after its destruction by the Burmese army in 1767.
Wat Ratchaburana
Meaning “the temple of Royal Restoration” . It was built in 1424 by King Borommarachathirat II as a memorial to his two elder brothers.
Wat Thammikarat
Wat Thammikarat was damaged during the Burmese sack of the city in 1767, but the temple ruins survive to testify to its grandeur. You can see the lion figures and rooster statues here.
