Wat Phra Loi was built to house a Buddha image that had been found washed along the Tha Chin River. The white sandstone Buddha image is depicted seated under a Naga (mythic sea serpent) hood, presumably carved during the Lopburi period. In the temple compound, visitors can also see the ruins of the main Ubosot (ordination hall) built in the U Thong period. A new Ubosot has been built over the ruins to preserve it. Nearby, another elegant Ubosot with four entrances houses the beautiful principal Buddha image called Phra Phutthanawaratmongkhon, as well as ancient sandstone Buddha images in various postures. Near the river bank are grotesque figures, not for the squeamish, of sinners. Wat Phra Loi is located not far from Wat Khae.
