Nakhon Si Thammarat - Wat Sema Muang

Wat Sema Muang, also on the right-hand side of Ratchadamnoen Road, was founded in 775; the stone tablet previously referred to was discovered here. Remains of the construction are no longer in evidence. Only a few steps away stand two red-roofed Brahman temples from the Srivijaya period. The shrine on the right contains several Lingams (phallic symbols of the god Shiva).
