Site Size & Condition: Small Ruin Wat Wi Han Noi (วัดวิหารน้อย - Pronounced: Wot Wi-haan Noy)

Small laterite shrine located very close to the ancient walls in the southwest corner of the enclosed city area. The site is aligned east-northeast and a somewhat cramped positioning hints at the site perhaps predating the walls themselves or at least the later version of the city walls as seen today. The tiny shrine consists of a small, square, indented tower constructed out of relatively small-sized laterite bricks preceded by the vestiges of a vihara featuring rounded laterite columns.
