Charming of of Nang Phaya Sane Chan.
The outsiders may not be familiar with this name because it is located quite far away that located outside the city on the south side. Moreover, the way to visit this temple is too complicated. Although, there are important archaeological sites that is a bell-shaped pagoda and enshrined a Buddha image on four sides, which are found in a few places in Sukhothai. The front of the pagoda, the Viharn is remaining the traces of a sitting Buddha image enshrined, but the head and the hands are gone.


Although this archaeological site is not known, the artifacts found in the temple are famous all over which is a clay votive tablet called "Nang Phaya Sanehachan" There is a story that when the pagoda collapsed, they discovered the chamber containing the tablet with a scent pervading all over including at all the votive tablets. It could be the fragrance of the material that was used to create the votive tablet hundreds of years ago and still exist to the present amazingly. This amulet collection is a triangle shape calling Phra Nang Phaya. With the scent like King of Heart, the sacred plants, they bring the plant name to the amulet's name. They believed that there is a great wealth of Buddhism to make a trade and become loved by all people.
