This is situated in Amphoe Khai Bang Rachan, 13 kms.
southwest of the town on Route No. 3032. The statue refer
to the villagers of Bang Rachan who bravely fought against
the Burmese army in 1765 during the reign of King Ekkathat
of Ayutthaya. In spite of many more troops than the villagers,
the Burmese had to make eight attacks before the villagers
were defeated due to their shortage of weapons.
