Built during the Sukhothai period, the temple features several must-see landmarks, including Luang Pho Dam, Phra Buddha Chinnasi, and the small Wihan Phra Lueang. Inside, Luang Pho To, a large stucco Buddha image in the Mara-Vijaya posture, is enshrined in the Sukhothai style. His face is round and graceful, and his head is adorned with a long, flame-like urn and hair. It serves as the principal Buddha image in the ordination hall. The main hall also houses the Phra Prang Wat Yai, a Sukhothai-era historical site built to house the Buddha's relics. It is located at the center of the temple. Behind the temple are historical remains and artifacts from the Sukhothai period. This is the only significant piece of archaeological evidence that still contains architectural styles reflecting the temple's antiquity. At the base of the chedi is the "Phra Attharot," a standing Buddha image bestowing blessings, measuring 18 cubits tall.

#GetDiscountsWithoutLuck Wat Phra Sri Rattana Mahathat, commonly known as "Wat Yai," is a first-class royal temple of the Woramahawihan type. Located on Phutthabucha Road on the eastern bank of the Nan River, opposite Phitsanulok Provincial Hall, it enshrines the Phra Buddha Chinnarat, a Buddha image considered the most beautiful in Thailand. Wat Phra Sri Rattana Mahathat Woramahawihan has a long history dating back to the Sukhothai period. With its exquisite architecture, art, and sculptures, it is considered a valuable cultural heritage of Phitsanulok. There is no evidence of its construction date, but it is assumed to predate the Sukhothai period and serve as a royal temple. Evidence from a Sukhothai inscription indicates that King Sri Naw Nam Thum built the Phra Tooth Relic Sukontha Chedi. The Northern Chronicles state that "around 1900 B.E., King Sri Dharma Tripitaka (Phra Maha Thammaracha I) ruled Sukhothai. He was deeply devoted to Buddhism." He also studied the Tripitaka and other religious scriptures to a remarkable degree, a feat unparalleled by any other. He built Wat Phra Sri Rattana Mahathat on the east bank of the Nan River, with a central prang, four viharns, and a two-tiered gallery. He also ordered the casting of three Buddha images to be enshrined as the principal Buddha images in each of the three viharns. Later, in 1915, King Rama VI graciously elevated the temple to the status of a first-class royal temple, Wora Maha Wihan (Woramahawihan), thus earning its current full name, Chinnarat. The Phra Buddha Chinnarat Viharn, a pavilion-style viharn, houses the Phra Buddha Chinnarat, considered one of the most beautiful Buddha images in the world. Built during the Sukhothai period and renovated to its present condition, the viharn represents Sukhothai architecture, characterized by its elegance and proportions, and is one of the best preserved in Thailand. In the royal chapel there are two pairs of mother-of-pearl doors, 1 meter wide and 4.50 meters high. They are among the most beautiful ancient mother-of-pearl doors. The mother-of-pearl doors were newly built in 1756 during the reign of King Borommakot. He then offered the original carved wooden doors as doors for the Phra Wihan Phra Thaen Sila At.
