The Phraya Phichai Dap Hak Memorial |
|
|
is installed
in front of the town hall erected in honour of a hero. As
governor of Muang Phichai (south of Uttaradit) about 200
years ago during the Thon Buri period, he valiantly fought
with Burmese evaders until one of his swords broke in two.
But he prevailed over them. Hence the sobriquet "Phichai
of the Broken Sword".
