Wat Chetupon holds one of the rarest artifacts in Thai Buddhist art, a mandapa containing four large walking Buddha images carved in slate relief, each depicted in a different posture. Walking Buddha figures are unusual in Thai temple iconography, and finding four together in a single structure makes this site genuinely distinctive among the ruins of the central zone.

The images represent an early Sukhothai artistic style, and the quality of the relief work rewards close inspection. Less visited than some of the larger sites nearby, Wat Chetupon is the kind of place that those interested in Thai art history consider essential.
