Prasat Ta Pha Daeng

Prasat Ta Pha Daeng is a 12th-century Khmer-style laterite shrine located inside the central zone of Sukhothai Historical Park in Mueang Kao Subdistrict, Mueang Sukhothai District, Sukhothai Province. Situated south of Wat Mahathat near the Ramkhamhaeng National Museum, it is one of the oldest structures in the park, predating the Sukhothai Kingdom. Built in Bayon style, it features a single prang and reflects the region's earlier Khmer Hindu influence within the UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Visitors can expect a compact, single-tower laterite prang set on a low base within the walled central zone of Sukhothai Historical Park. The shrine stands in an open, grassy area surrounded by trees and other ruins, close to Wat Mahathat and the Ramkhamhaeng National Museum. The structure shows Khmer Bayon-style architecture with a porch and sandstone lintel details. The site is small and can be explored on foot or by bicycle as part of a park circuit, with interpretive signs explaining its history.
