Wat Tha-It is located in Ban Tha-It where the eight-story golden terraced-chedi (Buddhist stupa) known as Phrathat Chedi Sri Phothong can easily be seen from the road and which you can actually go all the way up to the top of the chedi. The effort is well worth it as the small windows on the eighth level provide an arresting view of the countryside and the rest of the temple compound.

Wat Khun Inthapramun is located in Tambon Inthapramun. It is an ancient temple constructed in the Sukhothai period. Considering the original line of brick remains, it is estimated to be a large temple where you can find the second longest reclining Buddha in Thailand, 50 meters from the topknot to the feet, is enshrined here. The image possesses attractive Buddha features with a serene smiling face attracting respectfulness and faithfulness from people.

Bats at Wat Chantharam : Wat Chantharam is an old temple locating in Ban Chang. Inside the precinct of this temple is crowded with trees, which have become habitats for numerous basted birds for centuries. These bats look for food at night, whereas during daytime, they hang themselves upside down along the black-color branches to be seen from distance.

Drum-Making Village From time to time, drum shops can be found on both sides of the road. People of Ban Phae have begun producing drums since 1927 after the harvesting season. The raw materials used are cowhide and rain tree wood because its texture is soft and able to be dug easily. We can observe drum-making procedures starting from lathing wood, laying cowhide sheet, and embedding pins. We can find sophisticated and magnificent drums here in various sizes.
