King Ramkhamhaeng Monument, Sukhothai

Just in front of the Sukhothai Historical Park is the statue of King Ramkhamhaeng the Great,
during whose reign Sukhothai reached its zenith
Situated on the north of Wat Mahathat is the King Ramkhamhaeng Monument. The bronze statue of King Ramkhamhaeng sits on a throne named Phra Thaen Manangkhasila Asana with a base relief recording his life.


King Ramkhamhaeng's famous stone inscription, for the first time written in Thai,
