Sanburi - Wat Mahathat

The Wat Mahathat built in the Ayutthaya period is in an advanced state of decay. Remains of several chedis and prangs can be seen, a Buddha figure screened by a naga in a bot and in the open the large figure of a seated Buddha in Ayutthaya style. A small museum contains Buddha figures in different styles; the most beautiful are in the National Museum in Bangkok.
