ArchitecturePrang Khaek
Prang Khaek comprises three brick towers in a north-east axis and face toward the east. The central tower is the highest and heaviest of the three. An excavation by Saritphong Khungsong discovered a single large rectangular foundation (Phaiti base) supporting all three towers.All three towers share similar architectural structure and style which are a base with projections, an entrance on the eastern side whereas other three sides display a blind door, and a multi-tiered superstructure. Stucco motifs which once were adorned the buildings are mostly now lost. The vihara, a rectangular brick building, which is adjacent to the eastern side of the central tower has a pointed arch doorway. The supposed water supply tank locates to the south of the vihara.
