Phra That Kong Khao Noi is at Tambon Tat Thong.
Take the Yasothon-Udon Thani route for 2 kilometres to get to the site.
Built during the 23rd-25th Buddhist century in the late Ayutthaya
period, the small, square brick pagoda has a distinctive top. The
middle part has designs of doorways on all 4 sides. A brick wall
surrounds the pagoda. A sacred Buddha image is behind the pagoda.
Legend has it that it was built by a young farmer who was repentant
after killing his mother because he was upset with hunger.
