The Wat Phan Tao is situated in the city centre inside the moats, adjacent to the Wat Chedi Luang. It is characterised by its wihaan built in teakwood. Its structure in wood gives it a very special atmosphere. In the evening, the Wat Phan Tao is finely illuminated. You can decide to visit it on a Sunday Evening, so that you can explore it in the night and at the same time, do shopping at the outdoor Sunday Market (from 5pm, from Wat Phra Singh to Thapae Gate, and adjacent roads).
