This another historical site is located in Wat Phra Prathon Chedi temple, Tambon Phra Prathon. It is located 2 Kms. to the east of Phra Pathom Chedi down Petchakasem Road. The former shape of Phra Prathon Chedi was an upside down bell like other Chedi that was built in Dvaravati period. As Wat Phra Prathon Chedi is located in the middle of the ancient city of Nakhon Chaisi thus several artefacts were discovered during excavations. Some of the discovered items include Buddha images, heads of Buddha images and Buddha images in terra cotta, as well as a bronze figure of a garuda gripping naga under its claws, which is the official symbol of King Rama VI.
