Wat Khao Angkarn

Located 20 kilometers away from Phanom Rung, the temple is right on an extinct volcano. Wat Khao Angkhan represents an interesting mixture of architecture from various periods. Inside the main building, there are wall murals and stories of Buddhism in English. Many Dvaravati’s sandstone temple boundary markers have also been discovered here. Getting there: a 5-kilometre drive from Ban Ta Pek (between Ban Tako and Phanom Rung) to Lahan Sai then carry on to a branch road for another 10 kilometres to the temple. Opening hours: Daily 8am-5pm.
