Yes, definitely worth it, especially if you are interested in history and architecture, or have already seen Angkor Wat in Cambodia. Prasat Muang Sing Historical Park is the ruins of a Khmer temple complex from the 12th-14th centuries, the westernmost outpost of the Khmer Empire in modern-day Thailand.

Prasat Muang Sing Historical Park

What you can see in the park:

  • Main prasat (sanctuary tower), restored and resembling a smaller version of Angkor temples.
  • Remains of fortress walls and moats that surrounded the ancient city.
  • Several other brick ruins and building foundations on a 102-hectare area.
  • A small museum with artifacts found during excavations (ceramics, figurines).
  • A reconstruction of an ancient burial with archaeological finds.
