Wat Traphang-Thong-Lang houses a square Mondop which is beautifully decorated by
stucco figures in niches. The southern side portrays the
Lord Buddha flanked by angels. To the west portrays the
Lord Buddha preaching to his father and relatives. The northern
side depicts the episode when the Lord Buddha returned to
preach to his wife. These stucco figures, especially those
on the south side, are masterpieces of Sukhothai art.
