Centrally located, gleaming white Wat Mahathat is one impressive temple. The showpiece is a 42m-tall five-tiered Ayuthaya-style prang (corn-cob shaped stupa) decorated in stucco relief, a specialty of Phetchaburi’s local artisans you’ll see all over town. Inside the wí·hăhn (sanctuary) that fronts it are important, though highly damaged, early-20th-century murals.

Stop At: Tham Khao Luang Cave, Khao Wang Rd. Thong Chai, Phetchaburi Thailand
About 4km north of town is Khao Luang Cave, a dramatic stalactite-stuffed cavern that’s one of Thailand’s most impressive cave shrines, and a favorite of King Rama IV when he was a monk. Accessed via steep stairs, it’s lit by a heavenly glow every morning (clouds permitting) when sunbeams filter in through the natural skylight.
