Situated by Maenam Phetchaburi in the town centre,
the large white pagoda of Wat Maha That, which can be seen from a
distance, is a mixture of the late Ayutthaya and early Rattanakosin
style with an adaptation of the prang of Lopburi. This Five Peak Prang
housing the Lord Buddha's relics was constructed according to concept
of Mahayana Buddhism. The elegantly designed stucco decorated on the
viharn and the ubosot is proof to the excellent skill of Phetchaburi's
local craftsmanship.
