City Pillar is at the corner of Chom Phon and
Prachak roads. This Chinese-style shrine houses the city pillar that
is worshipped by Thais and Chinese. Built in the reign of King Narai
the Great during 1656-1688, the shrine and city pillar are made of
wood. The inner eastern wall is covered with fired clay tiles with
raised designs of the battle of Thao Suranari and the way of life of
Thais in ancient times.
