Wat Phra Bath Noi

The traces of human indecency
When King Rama VI traveled to historical sites in Aranyik which refers to the area of Wat Pha that is outside Sukhothai city wall on the west. Then, he was impressed by this temple as an exquisite, greatest, and most prominent.



This temple is located on a hill, and people have to walk up the stone bridge. First of all, there is the fruit-shaped pagoda that has only one in Sukhothai city locating on the hill. The front has the small Viharn, and there is the trace of the adjustment of the hill area to be useful by ordering the stone in the pattern. It reflects the wisdom to manage the area with the materials that they have. The back of the pagoda has buildings with long bases and a small booth at the end of it assuming it is the place for walking for meditation and mindfulness meditation. Next, is the gigantic laterite pagoda that is elaborately built. There is a laterite etch etiquette to have the right angles and curves which have been already collapsed remaining only half of the body from the human's hand trying to find the valuables contained in the pagoda. This is the trace of the tragic story.
