 Description:   This stone Khmer-builtreligious sanctuary isancient, built in the late 13th-14th century. The main pagoda is square with a length of 5 meters on each side. A stone Buddha image in the meditation posture from the Dvaravati period, relocated from another temple, presently sits beside it. A structure, surrounded by wall, fronts the pagoda.

Everything is made of laterite except for the doorframes, window frames, the lintel and columns, which are made of sandstone. Faded, though beautiful, many engravings remain. During the 5th lunar month of each year, a fair is held to commemorate the religious site.

Prang Ku is at Ban Nong Bua, Tambon Nai Mueang, 3 kilometers from the city.
