Famous
for its crocodiles, Phichit still has a number of crocodile farms around
the province. There's even a huge model crocodile in the park next to
Bung Sifai, with an auditorium in its stomach!
Muang
Kao, the old city park, contains remnants of ancient Phichit, dating back
more than 900 years, with some of the old city wall, moats and Wat Phra
Si Rattana Mahathat in good condition. Wat Tha Luang, on the bank of the
Nan River, is popular as the setting for the Phichit boat races and festival,
held every September
