Lonely Planet review for Wat Phra Si Ratana Mahathat
Opposite the train station is this 13th-century Khmer wát. Once the town's largest monastery, it has been heavily renovated and makes for a great photo opportunity. The central Phra Prang has bas-relief depicting the life of the Buddha while its arched gate has images in the style of the Lawo period. The northwestern prang has U Thong–style angels; their oblong faces and unusual halos are rare.
