Wat Mahathat is the central Buddhist temple in the city. It was built from King Inlady and completed in 1345 in the reign of King Li Tai, belonging to the royal ancestral temple. The main pagoda of Wat Mahathat is a vegan Thai-style pagoda with a lotus-shaped upper part. It was rebuilt by King Li Tai. It was originally a Khmer pagoda. King Li Tai did not want to be influenced by Khmer. The original Khmer pagoda was then wrapped up and covered with a vegan Thai-style pagoda. This kind of example of not destroying the works of predecessors can be seen in Thailand from time to time, because Thai people believe that destroying temples or Buddha statues is disrespectful to gods. .

The site of the temple is on an island with a moat and a road leads directly to the southeast corner of the island, but the entrance to the temple is to the west. There is also a wooden bridge to the east, but tourists are not allowed to pass on the bridge, only local children play here.
