Kamphaeng Phet Historical Park – Inner Zone - Thailand 2023
More than just a military outpost, Kamphaeng Phet was a vibrant city and had a ceremonial center with a large royal palace and up to 20 temples. The palace is no longer here but the remaining temples make up the Inner Zone of the Kamphaeng Phet Historical Park.
The largest temple in the Inner Zone is Wat Phra Kaeo, which would have been next to the palace and was used for ceremonies. A significant feature is that it has five pagodas on the same base, extending for about 300 meters. The main stupa is decorated with lions. Another round stupa has elephant sculptures around its base.
Adjacent to the largest temple is Wat Phra That, which is believed to have been the main temple for the king and is one of the most important monuments in the historical park. It's much smaller but has a bell-shaped stupa that contains relics of the Buddha. Surrounding the stupa are galleries, which are unusual in Sukhothai and shows an influence from Ayutthaya.
The Inner Zone is not as large as the north section that I made a video of earlier but the condition of the 2 temples is much better. Both zones are well worth a visit as well as the fortifications around the city.
Enjoy the video!
