WAT PA PHLU
Wat Pa Phlu or the "Monastery of the Forest of the Betel-vine" is a not restored small
ruin situated off the city island in the north-western area at Tambon Tha Wasukri, west
of
Wat Salapun.

In situ is a brick mound with on top a locally fabricated small viharn, containing
archaeological artifacts.

The historical background of this temple is unknown. The site has been victim of treasure
farming in earlier years.

The site is indicated on Phraya Boran Rachathanin's map drafted in 1926.
