   I was taken to this temple one evening. To be honest I was not all that excited about visiting another temple. The family told me that there was a festival and market taking place that evening. Wow what an excellent experience ! The market was enormous and different from the usual. Kids had plenty to do with a pop gun shooting gallery, feeling baby goats and filling themselves up with street food. The festival started and was an amazing choreographed display on a platform on the river. It was a mixture of Thai dancing and a religious ceremony. Sitting on tiered banks we watched the show with the most spectacular backdrop of lights depicting traditional Thai themes on a massive bamboo scaffold ( which moved at the end of the ceremony ) accompanied with a fire work show. The effort that had gone into the preparation of this festival was mind blowing. WELL DONE PHICHIT and the organisers !! See more..
   
4. 4.5 Wat Pho Prathap Chang (10 reviews)
   - ... surprise ...
   Points of Interest & Landmarks
   
   
   Exploring the area of Phichit, this is probably THE place not to be missed. We expected a ruin, but the monks from the Wat near by have kind of re-activated it and are doing ceremonies and blessings in there. What makes the place and it’s atmosphere very special. But probably to a less extent, when many people are visiting. What I guess is on weekends and buddhist holy days. The ruin itself is pretty straightforward. No ancient paintings, ornaments or carvings. But well restored and bilingual explanations and posts around. See more..
   
5. 4.5 Wat Sukhumaram (6 reviews)
   - Beautiful Buddha
   Spent 1-2 hours Religious Sites
   
   
   One of our favorite Beautiful Temple we had visited. Must go see if you have change to visit. Very nice place if you looks around all green green and quite you can sit and make merit. So beautiful Buddha and long. We had an amazing time at Wat Sukhumaram Bang Mun Nak Thailand See more..
   
6. 4.0 Wat Khao Rup Chang (10 reviews)
   - Chang, Chedi & Caged Animals
   Points of Interest & Landmarks
   
   
   Wat Khao Rup Chang or Temple of the Elephant Hill (about 15 kms south of the provincial centre) might be one of Phichit's most famous attractions but we always associate this quiet (though not so well tended) temple with the caged animals including bears in front of the naga stairs. Given that Buddhism's first precept is to refrain from killing or harming living creatures, both humans and non-humans alike, it's rather pathetic that years after our first visit, the animals are still there suffering. On the positive side, the hilltop golden chedi affords decent views of the evergreen countryside. See more..

8. 3.5 Bueng Si Fai (23 reviews)
   - A few crocs, not much else.
   Points of Interest & Landmarks
   
   
   We passed by on the way from Phitsanolouk to Kampaeng Phet. The place is really run down and needs to be freshened up. The aquarium on the lake has some interesting fish and you can feed the many big fish in the lake with the cheap fish food you can buy in the stalls. There is a crocodile pit that holds some big ones. We saw a cross-eyed croc smiling at us when we went there. Like it had eaten magic mushrooms or something even better. Very fun............ But the rest of it was nothing much. Don't drive far to visit. If passing by, check it out. See more..
   
9. 3.0 Chaloem Phra Kiat Aquarium (1 review)
   - Free & Enjoyable
   Spent < 1 hour Aquariums
   This is a nice overwater aquarium at Bung Si Fai. The lake, on the outskirts of Phichit, Thailand is relatively large with beautiful lily pads floating over a large portion. The walkway is well maintained as you walk out over the lake to enter the aquarium. The structure shows the 20 some different fish that live in the lake and descriptions are written both in Thai and English. Bread is available to purchase to feed the fish within the lake. There is no admission and is a nice outing to enjoy. See more..
