Wat Mahathat Worawiharn

Spectacular in the evening

What we say:

This venerable wat has a spectacular 42 metre tall central white prang which can be seen from much of town. Believed to have been built around 800 years ago, Wat Mahathat shows considerable Khmer influence and marks pretty much the southern limit of the Khmer empire at its grandest. The central prang is floodlit in the evening, making it doubly impressive. Each of the four smaller prangs that surround the central prang has a Buddha replica at its apex.
