Wat Nuea has a pleasant ambience, located in the northwest quarter of the city. It's known for its 1200-year-old brick chedi from the Dvaravati period, which has an unusual four-cornered bell-shaped form that's rare in Thailand. Also inside the cloister (these are common in most of Thailand, but rare in Isan) are some old Dvaravati bai săir·mah (Buddhist boundary stones) and a giant bodhi tree. Also in the cloister is a shrine containing a stone pillar.
