The Chan Palace was a royal residence in the 15th Century and the birth place of King Naresuan, who is a famous historical figure in Thailand and the subject of many films and books. The original Chan Palace doesn\u2019t exist any more but a partially reconstruction now stands on the same site. Wat Wihan Thong is the temple beside the Chan Palace and part of the ruins have survived the last 500 years. The best known attraction in Phitsanulok is, however, Wat Phra Si Rattana Mahathat. Wat Phra Si Rattana Mahathat was founded in 1357 and hosts what is considered to be Thailand\u2019s most beautiful Buddha statue, the Phra Phuttha Chinnarat. Wat Phra Si Rattana Mahathat gets large number of Thai visitors who come to see the statue."}]
